[Audio] Market Study of M-S-E-U-F Lucena City as a Tertiary and Post-graduate Education Provider Dr Felix M Mercado Principal Investigator Dr Flormando P Baldovino Dr Claudia Odette J Ayala Co-Investigators.
[Audio] Purpose of the Research Main Objective: The main purpose of this research is to analyze the market of M-S-E-U-F Lucena City as an H-E-I that provides tertiary and post-graduate education in the province as its immediate environ and in the region and other parts of the country. Specific Objectives: Specifically, the study will seek to attain the following objectives: Determine the profile of the market of M-S-E-U-F Lucena City Identify the factors that influence enrollment in the various academic programs of M-S-E-U-F Lucena City Determine the program preference of the target market (incoming students and parents) and current market (currently enrolled students and parents) Establish the strategic market position of MSEUF-Lucena City among its competitors Assess if demographic profile moderates the factors that influence enrollment in the various academic programs of M-S-E-U-F Lucena City.
[Audio] Research Paradigm of the Study This study will consider the following inputs: profile of the of the market of M-S-E-U-F Lucena City; respondents’ views and perceptions of the identified factors that influence their decision to enroll in the various academic programs of MSEUF-Lucena City, their program preferences, capacity, and motivations to enroll in their current programs. The Process part of the study will involve tows-Swot Analysis, Porter’s Five Forces Model Analysis, Supply and Demand Analysis as well as surveys, interviews, and focus group discussions. The target outputs will be: M-S-E-U-F marketing framework and policy recommendations on program offerings. The theoretical underpinnings of the study depend largely on Ansoff Matrix (1957), Porter’s Generic Strategies (1980), tows-Swot Analysis proposed by Weihrich (1982), and the three types of marketing identified by Camilleri (2017). Ansoff (1957) presented in a matrix the following components: market development, diversification, market penetration, and product development. Porter (1985) argued that an organisation must build upon existing capacities, as opposed to developing new ones. Bodycott (2009), identified a series of common ‘pull’ factors that affect a student’s choice of destination..

[Audio] MSEUF Research Agenda Background The very first research agenda of the M-S-E-U-F which ended in 2011 focused on four key research areas: institutional development, community development, environmental conservation, protection and development, and aesthetic and cultural development. In 2012, the M-S-E-U-F Unified Research Agenda 2012-2018 was formulated to deal with research areas and thrusts that are attuned to the developments that have changed the landscape of research in higher education. In 2019, to address the University president’s recent thrust and strategic goal of strengthening research in all colleges of MSEUF, the M-S-E-U-F Expanded Research, Innovation, Development, and Extension Agenda 2019-2030 (MSEUF E-RIDE 2019-2030) was created to serve as a guidepost and template for research, development, innovation, and extension activities necessary in transforming M-S-E-U-F into a research-intensive university and in realizing and surpassing the M-S-E-U-F Vision 2030 of becoming a globally competitive university..
