Abstract

The purpose of this study was to change the '과gwa (academic department)' operated by the college to the '학과haggwa (academic department).' Although they are in a lower order in the legal system, "the Regulations for the Establishment and Operation of University and College" and "the Public Notice on the Establishment of a 3-year Course at College" use '학과haggwa' regardless of the type of school. On the other hand, "the Higher Education Act and the Enforcement Decree of the Higher Education Act" use '과gwa' for colleges. The department name can be changed from '과gwa' to '학과haggwa' through a revision of school regulations in promoting the establishment of a major and the operation of the curriculum. In this study, it is considered reasonable to operate the name of '학과haggwa' in an associate degree course or higher.

본 연구의 목적은 전문대학에서 운용하는 '과' 명칭을 '학과'로 변경하고자 하는 것이다. 법체계상으로는 하위순위이지만, 「대학의 설립운영규정」과 「전문대학 3년제 학과 설치 기준에 관한 고시」에서는 학교 종류에 관계없이 학과 명칭을 사용하고 있다. 반면, 「고등교육법」과 「고등교육법 시행령」에서는 전문대학에 '과' 명칭을 사용하고 있다. 학과명은 전공 신설 및 교육과정 운영을 추진함에 있어 학칙 개정을 통해 '과' 명칭에서 '학과'로 변경할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 "전문학사 이상 학위과정이학과 명칭으로 운영되는 것"이 타당하다고 판단된다.
