چکیده

هدف اصلی پژوهش حاضر شناسایی مؤلفه­های توسعه دیپلماسی علم و فناوری در کشور ایران، بررسی وضعیت موجود آنها و شناسایی عوامل و ملاکهای ارتقا دهنده تأثیر نظام آموزش عالی بر آنها بود. روش پژوهش از نوع کاربردی و نحوه جمع‌آوری اطلاعات از نوع آمیخته اکتشافی بود و به­طور متوالی ابتدا از روش کیفی (مصاحبه نیمه ساختاریافته) و سپس روش کمّی (پرسشنامه محقق ساخته) استفاده شد.
نمونه­گیری مصاحبه به روش هدفمند بود. جامعه آماری بخش کمّی اعضای هیئت علمی دانشگاه صنعتی خواجه نصیرالدین طوسی(253 نفر) بودند. برای تجزیه و تحلیل داده­های مصاحبه از روش تحلیل ساختاری، در پرسشنامه از روش تحلیل عاملی اکتشافی و برای بررسی وضعیت موجود مؤلفه­ها از آزمون t تک نمونه­ای استفاده شد. نتایج این پژوهش تعداد 3 بعد و 30 مؤلفه را برای توسعه دیپلماسی علم و فناوری در کشور و 5 عامل و 21 ملاک را برای افزایش میزان تأثیر نظام آموزش عالی در آن تبیین می­کند. پیشنهاد اصلی برای آموزش عالی و سیاست خارجی، توسعه زیرساختها و ارتقای توافقنامه­های بین­المللی در میان دانشگاهها و یافتن راه­حلی برای چالشهای مشترک به­ویژه در میان کشورهای همسایه است.
