Co-operative (Co-op) education is a college program that integrates classroom studies with paid, productive and real-life work experience. A mandatory Co-op program for the degree is introduced with a sample curriculum from the Mechanical Engineering program at University of the Pacific. The mandatory Co-op program requires a minimum of 7 months of work experience with the option of pursuing a 12 month program. Students also have the opportunity of participating in an Engineering Industry Fellowship (EIF) program or an International Engineering Co-op program (IECP). University of the Pacific has engineering programs in Bio-Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Engineering Management, Engineering Physics, and Mechanical Engineering. All the programs are ABET-accredited except the Bio-Engineering program, which is relatively new. The Co-op employers evaluate the Co-op students at the end of the working period before returning to school, and the students also provide an evaluation of their Co-op experience. Co-op employer evaluations of student work are used in ABET assessment methods developed by the Mechanical Engineering program at University of the Pacific.

This study proposes content and instruction of leadership education based on the results of evaluation and analysis of leadership skill of present levels of students who registered for 'leadership development and training' course which is liberal arts elective course of the 'Accreditation Board of Engineering Education in Korea' and provides best practices to develop leadership skill and to attain academic achievement 2, 4, 6, 7 of 12 academic achievement required by KEC2005. To accomplish a purpose of the study, I divide leadership skill into technical skill, human skill and conceptual skill that suggested by Katz and then measure students' leadership skill. The contents of leadership education to develop and enforce three leadership skills are as follows. First, for developing technical skill, there is a need for systematic education of basic working experience relevant to a major field of study. Second, for developing human skill, there is a need for education of leadership, motivation, conflict management, communication, group dynamics and presentation etc. Third, for developing conceptual skill, there is a need for education of founding vision, business strategy and creative idea etc.

한국공학교육인증원 인증기준 중 세 번째인 교육요소와 그에 따른 교과과정 개발은 현재 국내의 많은 대학들이 시행하고 있는 학부제가 특정 전공의 교육 프로그램을 인증하는 인증제와 상충하며, 또한 현재까지 인증기준에 따라 인증을 준비한 전례가 없기 때문에 여러 가지 흔란과 의문을 야기하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 명지대학교 공과대학 전자공학 전공을 예로 선정하여 인증기준에 의한 교육요소를 개발하고 그에 따른 교과과정을 개발한 사례를 소개함으로써 인증기준에 따른 교과과정 개발의 문제점을 조사하고 개발과정에서 경험한 여러 문제점과 개선점을 논의하고자 한다.

Professional communication skills in writing and speaking with multiple and complex audiences are required to engineers in society of modern technology. In this paper, we proposed the effective assessment system for the Program Outcomes on the communication skill competence(PO7), which is one of the 12 program outcomes stipulated by ABEEK (Accreditation Board for Engineering Education of Korea). To ensure logical connectivity of the assessment system, we carefully selected the performance criteria by defining the core concept of "written communication" and "verbal communication". Based on the selected performance criteria, the whole process of creating assessment tools and rubrics was explained in detail. It can be expected that the assessment for the Program Outcomes on the communication skill competence would be more systematic by using the proposed assessment system.

The purpose of this research is to search for directions in engineering education development in a knowledge-based society in terms of 'engineering ethics educatio'. Engineering ethics education, having been recognized as an inter-disciplinary research field between engineering and philosophy, is a field that has been a major issue in countries that execute engineering education accreditation. And engineering ethics education has been a peculiar research field focused on EAC(Ethics across the Curriculum). Therefore, this study has deduced several results by critically reviewing the extant EAC-related literatures. First, accomplishments by various researchers that may well quoted as the leader of engineering ethics study and education or the educational achievements of Kanazawa Institute of Technology in Japan are considerably substantial. However, the EAC discussions thus far still raise numerous barriers and unsolved issues. Second, the discussion of EAC thus far comprehends limitations such as a shortage of the recognition of inter-disciplinary study in the field of education and insufficient participation by education majors. Third, the engineering and philosophy field experts who have been leading EAC discussions have been pursuing integrated education courses either consciously or unconsciously. Fourth, EAC discussions may expand by again illuminating the intent of integrated education courses in terms of 'education and the study of education', and this new facet can be summed up with a new term, EAL, which stands for 'Ethics across the Living.'

Design factors such as design objects establishment, analysis, synthesis, production, test and evaluation should be educated in a systematic way. Also design ability to reflect practical restrictive conditions such as industrial standards, economic feasibility, environmental impact, aesthetics, safety and reliability, ethical impacts and social impacts should be cultivated. In this paper, we explain the meaning of these terms and propose a systematic engineering design education framework satisfying Korean engineering education accreditation criteria. We also present a simple implementation in information network engineering.

The purpose of this study was to develop indicators for quality management of educational institutions, and to achieve this, literature analysis and expert interviews were conducted. Through literature analysis, the components of TQM were derived focusing on factors to improve the quality of education, engineering education accreditation standards, and a representative education accreditation system, were considered. Additionally, seven areas as well as 32 indicators required for education quality management, were derived by comparing the EFQM excellence model and the MBNQA education model, applied for quality management of companies and institutions. By comparing and synthesizing these results, a draft was developed for the quality management index of educational institution. Next, opinions on correction and supplementation of quality management indicators derived from literature analysis, were collected from five education experts. From the comparisons and integration of these results, eight criteria (leadership, strategy, customers, people, facilities and environment, curriculum management, curriculum improvement, and performance management) and 34 indicators, were proposed for quality management indicators for educational institutions. Curriculum management, people, and performance management criteria were considered more significantly in quality management of educational institutions, and several implications are suggested based on the study results.

본 논문에서는 창의적 공학교육의 기반과 성과를 평가하기 위해 운영되고 있는 공학교육인증제도에서 핵심 교육요소로 강조하고 있는 효과적인 공학설계를 위한 PBL기반의 설계교육방법과 이를 IT학부의 필수 요소설계과목의 하나인 논리회로설계에 적용하여 콘텐츠를 개발한 사례를 제시한다. 요소설계는 요소기술 중심의 설계이므로 종합설계의 경우와는 달리 설계구성요소 및 현실적 제한조건들의 범위가 제한되는 특징을 가지고 있어 창의적 설계교육이 이루어지려면 요소설계과목의 특성을 충분히 고려하여 PBL을 적용할 필요가 있다. 개발한 콘텐츠(교재)를 실제 수업에 적용하여 유효성을 확인하였다.

급속하게 발전하는 GIS분야의 사회적 수요와 대학교육간의 괴리를 해소하고 관련 분야의 미래지향적 인재를 양성하고, 공학인증제의 도입에 따른 GIS분야의 대응방안이 필요한 시기이다. 이를 위하여 본 논문에서는 서울시립대학교를 비롯한 국내외 학부과정의 GIS교과과정을 분석하였다. GIS분야의 공학인증 도입의 타당성을 분석하기 위하여 국내 공학인증의 현황과 문제점을 분석하고, 해외의 GIS관련 인증사례 분석을 통하여 바람직한 방안을 제시하였다. 아울러 해외 선진국에서 제시한 GIS분야의 핵심교과과정과 지식체계(Body of Knowledge)의 분석을 통하여 공간정보 표준교과과정(안)을 제시하였다. 이를 효과적으로 수행하기 위한 정책적 대안으로 측량 및 GIS관련학회를 중심으로 한 산학협력 포럼이나 협의체의 구성과 논의가 필요하다.
