Construction safety education will continue to attract the interests of construction educators, researchers, and industry professionals due to its immense influence on accident reduction and prevention. A well-educated workforce with a thorough understanding of safety requirements and procedures is needed to develop and apply effective safety and health programs as well as devise strategic means of preventing injuries, illnesses, and fatalities on construction projects. The objective of this research is to evaluate construction safety education in the curriculum of construction programs in the United States. An analysis of construction safety courses across accredited construction programs in the U.S. is conducted to synthesize important details and common themes. A nationwide characterization of the safety courses presented followed by an assessment selected a few programs as a pilot study. Critical elements of the courses such as course titles, course year, credit hours, topics covered, and alignment with professional certification or outreach training courses are characterized. Findings from the study reveal the similarities and variations that exist among safety courses taught in different construction programs in the U.S. These findings could result from several influencing factors, which could be the subject of further investigations geared toward improving safety education in construction programs.

Major changes of the industrial engineering curricula in U.S.A. were analysed in three stages: 1938, 1958 and 1984. There are tendencies that the traditional plant operation oriented courses are combined and compressed to a few courses while the system oriented courses such as SA, OR, computer applications, man-machine systems are expanding. It will be necessary to organize a study group such as ASEE conducting further studies to meet our needs by upgrading the engineering curriculum for the coming 90's education.

This study was carried out to investigate how grade level and experiences when taking courses affect the creativity of engineering students in a Korean college. The sample group consisted of 372 engineering students of which 49.5% were first graders, 15.6% second graders, 22.6% third graders, and 12.4% fourth graders. They conducted self-report measures on a domain-general and domain-specific view of creativity. The engineering creativity test, developed by Kang and Yune (2015), is based on the domain-specific view of creativity and consists of four sub-factors: creative attitude, knowledge research, interest in engineering, and team work ability. The domain-general creativity test consists of three sub-factors. Analysis of the results led to the following conclusions: First, we found significant differences in engineering creativity between students depending on experiences in taking courses and tests; and, second, we discovered significant differences in integrative creativity among students depending on experiences in taking courses and tests, and/or grade level. These conclusions suggest that we should develop and apply appropriate strategies to enhance creativity in engineering education.

Environmental professional education in Korea has been mostly concentrated on the scientific and technological approaches to environmental problems. Many undergraduate majors in environmental engineering or sciences are designed to produce more technical manpowers in environmental fields. Most graduate schools on the environment also place an emphasis on teaching the technical aspects of environmental problems. Some environmental administration related courses, such as environmental law, environmental administration, environmental policy, environmental economics, environmental impact assessments, etc. are partically reflected in some curricula of very limited graduate or undergraduate environment majors. However, teaching environmental administration related courses in science or engineering major institutions has not been successfully carried out so far because lack of interests in such courses by most students and the shortage of competent teachers as well. Furthermore, those courses are not widely accepted by the departments of law, political science, public administration, etc. because their major interests are not in the environment-oriented. Environmental problems cannot be solved by the technical approach along. They should be systematically dealt with through interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary approaches, including natural and social sciences covering all relevant disciplines. in this respect, undergraduate environmental education should preferably cover broader courses on the environment, and the education for environmental professionals, including environmental administration specialists, is preferably handled by graduate schools offering many specialty area courses. Education for environmental administration specialist at graduate level is urgently needed in order to supply the competent manpower at government, business, and private organization levels dealing with environmental administration related problem. This is a new challenging area and the education for such specialists will become more important in the near future than technical manpowers which we ate now concentrating on their education.

Commonly it is perceived that it is difficult to teach engineering design and satisfy accreditation criteria in computer science and engineering related majors. However, since engineering design in these disciplines are a product design, it is more adaptable than other majors which are process design oriented. This paper shows that although there are subtle differences with conventional engineering design, engineering design education in computer science and engineering can be effectively done. This paper concentrates on how engineering design related curriculum can be constructed, what should be considered when designing such curriculum, and how engineering design can be taught in individual design courses(excluding introductory and capstone courses) based on case experience.

본 연구는 현재 공학교육인증을 받거나 준비 중인 대학에서 편성 운영 중인 공학기본소양과목의 현황과 문제점을 살펴보고, 기본소양과목을 이수한 학생들의 학습성과 평가, 강의평가 결과를 분석하여 기본 소양 과목 운영의 문제점과 해결방법을 제시하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 도출하였다. 첫째, 현재 기본소양과목은 대체로 공학교육인증기준 교육요소에서 요구하는 학점 수에 맞추어 편성 운영되고 있으나 대부분 기존의 교양과목을 공학기본 소양과목으로 활용하고 있다. 향후 21세기 지식기반사회를 이끌어 갈 유능한 엔지니어를 육성하기 위해서는 일반적인 교양과목이 아니라 공학인에게 필요한 교양과목을 이수할 수 있어야 한다. 따라서 요구조사를 통해 새롭게 기본소양과목을 계발하고 교육 내용을 재구성하여야 하며 다양한 수업방법과 평가방법을 개발하여 전공과목에서 얻기 어려운 교육적 효과를 얻을 수 있는 경험이 되어야 한다. 둘째, 사회나 기업에서는 기본소양이나 교양의 중요성을 인식하고 필요성을 강조하고 있는데 반해 아직 공대학생들이나 졸업생들의 경우 이에 대한 인식이 부족하다. 미래의 테크노 리더로서 가져야 할 역량과 기본 소양의 중요성을 학생들이 인식할 수 있도록 지도해야 한다. 마지막으로 공학기본과목을 담당하는 교수자들의 역할의 중요성이다. 강사보다는 전임교수들이 강의를 담당하도록 하며 교수들은 교과내용의 충실도를 높이고 학습자 중심의 수업 방법들을 다양하게 활용하여 의사표현 능력이나 자기주도적 학습능력들을 효과적으로 키워갈 수 있는 기회를 제공하는 것이 필요하다.

Accreditation of engineering education as initiated by Accreditation Board for Engineering Education of Korea (ABEEK) centers around three key issues: program outcomes, assessment/evaluation thereof, and continuous quality improvement (CQI). Most engineering departments, however, are neither adequately familiar with nor well prepared for the issues, especially CQI. The CQI in almost all departments seems to be overly confined in individual courses and the final capstone design courses for seniors; there is no evidence that CQI is not limited to the course level but flows through all courses in the curriculum. This paper presents a sound and viable framework for CQI implementation in which course-level CQI is integrated into the department/program-level CQI.
