The objective of this study is to make some contribution to the activation of the organizational culture in university.
To accomplish this objective, we illustrated the diverse approaches about the definition and it's contexts of organizational culture and investigated the factors of the organizational culture that influence organizational effectiveness.
And, after suggesting the necessity of the introduction of organizational culture to university, We examined the relationship between the culture and the effectiveness of university reviewing the previous researches.
Based upon the theoretical background, We analyzed the influential factors of the university culture on effectiveness through the empirical research in terms of student's behavior and attitude, in order to activating the university culture.
The main findings of the analysis are as follows;
First, the result showed that the university effectiveness was positively influenced by 'symbolic contexts of culture' such as 'idea', 'rituals and ceremony' and 'tradition and history'.
Second, It was also found that the university effectiveness was positively influenced by 'practical contexts of culture' composed of 'curriculum and instruction', guidance and counselling of employment', 'supportive administration', 'relationship with the community', 'acquisition and allocation of resources' and 'adaption to the social changes'. Especially, among of them, the external contexts such as 'relationship with the community' and 'adaption to the social change' was proven the crucial factors for achieving the university effectiveness
Third, it was indicated that 'symbolic contexts of culture' positively influenced all of the 'practical contexts of culture', in particular, more impacted on those factors such as the 'relationship with the community' and the 'adaption to the social changes' were to be important factors for the university effectiveness
