However, the customized university-industry cooperation with taking into account the characteristics of companies and universities has not been done, and most of the studies have not much considered the characteristics by industry and the size of businesses. The primary goal of this paper is to suggest policy implication for competency enhancement of university-industry cooperation through a study and analysis of university competency and enterprise demand based on characteristics by university and by enterprise, by analysis of demand of the enterprises which are participating in university-industry cooperation programs and by analysis of survey research to their satisfaction with competency of university-industry cooperation. The survey of satisfaction with the competency, from enterprise point of view, has been conducted against companies participating university-industry cooperation programs. The methods of average comparison using T-test and ANOVA against the survey research for competency satisfaction from samples of universities and companies participating their cooperation program have been used. The result of the study shows that university-industry competency of universities to improve are different by the characteristics of enterprises and universities (by industry, by number of employees, by amount of sales, etc). Implication from the study is that one step further actions running tailored cooperation programs to reflect the characteristics and demand of the enterprise are required to maximize and enhance efficiency of university-industry cooperation.
