초록

본 연구는 우리나라 조경도입 40년을 즈음하여 빠르게 변화하고 있는 사회의 요구에 조경교육이 적절히 대응할 수 있도록 대학 조경교육에 대한 현장 실무자의 인식을 조사하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 모두 257명의 실무자를 대상으로 조경교육에 대한 전반적인 인식, 교과목 유형별 중요도와 실무활용도, 조경업무 단계별 중요도와 실무활용도 등에 대한 설문조사가 진행되었다. 조사결과, 전반적인 대학 조경교육에 대한 실무자의 인식은 다소 부정적으로 나타났는데, 특히 대학 졸업 직후 현장에서 활용할 수 있는 현장중심의 교육을 보강할 필요가 있는 것으로 판단된다. 대학 교육에 대한 요구로도 현실적인 전문지식, 인접분야에 대한 이해 등의 현장에서 활용 가능한 내용이 주를 이루고 있었으며, 신입사원 교육을 통해서 실무스킬이나 컴퓨터, 법제도 관련 사항을 보완하고 있었다. 대학 교육 개선을 위해서는 전임교수는 물론이고, 학생과 실무자들의 공동의 노력이 중요한 것으로 인식하고 있었다. 과목별로는 식재설계, 조경설계, 조경재료, 조경계획, 조경시공 및 관리 등의 과목이 중요한 과목으로 조사되었으나 부분적으로는 분야별 특성이 나타났다. 업무단계별로는 중요도 측면에서는 계획, 설계, 시공관련 과목이 고르게 중요한 단계로 인식되었으나, 실무활용도 측면에서는 계획과 설계과목으로 한정되어 현대학 교육이 계획과 설계 중심으로 진행되고 있는 경향을 보여주었다. 학문연구를 기본으로 하는 대학입장에서 실무자 의견을 그대로 교육과정에 반영할 될 수는 없겠으나, 현실을 반영한 교육에 대한 요구와 계획, 설계 중심의 교육에서 탈피하여 균형감 있는 교육이 될 수 있도록 하는 노력은 필요하리라 생각한다. 본 연구에서는 설문응답자가 수도권에 집중되었으며 실무자 의견 조사에 한정되어, 대학 조경교육에 대한 종합적인 개선방안 제시를 위해서는 교육자나 피교육자의 의견이 포함된 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This study investigates the practitioners' perception of Landscape Education in the universities in order to satisfy the demands of the rapidly changing industry. The survey was conducted for 257 practitioners to analyze the overall perception of Landscape Education, the importance and utilization of each course in universities, and the importance and utilization of each landscape process step. The overall perception of Landscape Education was slightly negative, and more practical education was demanded to improve the students' adaptability on the job. Practitioners suggested that universities should teach more practical expertise and related fields. They re-educated deficient aspects such as practical skills, computer techniques and legislational knowledge through the new employee training. The survey also showed that professors should be most responsible for a better education; however, students and practitioners have to endeavor together. According to the findings, planting design, landscape design, landscape materials, landscape planning and landscape construction as well as management were important. They are also considered as practical courses. However, practitioners perceived that university education was not sufficient for the constructional process. This means that Landscape Education in the universities has been more focused on planning and design. Because the universities are essentially for the research and study, changing the curriculum as practitioners suggested is not necessary. Nevertheless, it suggests for more practical education and balanced curriculum including construction and management that should be seriously considered. This study was focused on the practitioners' perception. Many of the respondents were from Seoul metropolitan area, therefore, it's hard to generalize the findings. A further study should be considered that would include instructors as well as students.
