초록

본 연구는 이공계열 대학원생들의 영어논문 작성 능력에 관한 실태를 조사하고 연구 윤리에 대한 인식을 조사하고자 수행되었다. 이공계열의 경우, 학위 논문을 비롯한 학술지 논문을 영어로 작성하는 것이 일반화된 환경에서 이공계열 대학원생들의 영어 논문 작성에 대한 경험과 준비 정도, 실태 및 연구 윤리와 표절에 대한 인식 정도를 조사하였다. 연구 결과, 이공계열 대학원생의 연구 윤리에 관한 인식이 매우 부족하여 이에 대한 교육이 시급히 강화되어야 함을 확인하였다. 특히 참고 문헌의 인용 범위에 관하여 정확히 모르고 있는 경우도 많아서 인용 범위와 방법에 대한 교육과 훈련이 요구된다. 본 연구 결과는 추후 이공계열 대학원생들의 영어논문 작성 능력을 향상시키기 위하여 학교에서 제공할 교육과정과 지원 방안을 모색하는데 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

The present study was conducted to investigate science and engineering graduate students' proficiency in technical English writing and their perceptions of research ethics. Given that graduate students in science and engineering colleges usually write journal articles as well as dissertations in English, this study examined their experience of and preparation for technical English writing, writing practices, and research ethics including plagiarism. The results of the study show that it is very necessary to intensify education on research ethics and to provide educational training in proper citation practices. These findings can be used as a basis for the development of future academic curricula and other support resources to improve science and engineering graduate students' technical English writing.
