The economic and political changes in the world, from the 1970s, changed the political education of the Public Institutions of Higher Education in the world. The direction of these changes was clear: the university approachedthe market and the company and created interaction mechanisms that did not exist. The article therefore reviews the academic literature that interprets the relationship between university and market/company from two perspectives: approaches that positively position of interactions, exposing their motivations, interests and forms of interaction, especially the notions on Knowledge Economy and Entrepreneurial University; approaches that observe this interaction critically and reflectively, exposing the problems of interaction, its negative aspects and the reflection of the true role of the public university from the perspective of Academic Capitalism.

The Department of Electronics of the Technological Educational Institute of Crete (DoE/TEI Crete) enjoys good approval ratings from the market and its graduates have a high rate of employability. However, survey data collected over the last ten years from graduates and from the enterprises in which they have been employed, or have carried out their workplace learning, indicate the strong and weak aspects of the Department's curriculum from the viewpoint of the job market. The authors identify issues that may improve the access of their graduates to the market and which may also bring enterprises closer to the DoE, thus offering both parties the opportunity to establish internships for research. It is proposed that the time is now right for a next step to be made towards achieving cooperative engineering education and the authors offer suggestions as to how this might be achieved.

Over the past two decades, a surprising number of University Science Parks have emerged and developed in China. The reason for the phenomenon is that the reinforcement of strategies to establish University-Industry relationship is regarded as a crucial development policy to help China overtake the west (Wu, 2007). Under the rapid growth, the University Science Park (USP) is involved in a series of changes of urban areas[1] .As the USP develops faster, those effects will become more and more notable. Only if comprehensive evaluation of the effects is realized, could the USP be more beneficial to urban development. Then, with supporting data from the Hsinchu University Science Park, the economic, cultural, and environmental effects of the University Science Park on urban area will be explained in section 3.
