초록

자연생태계와 인간사회의 공통적인 이익을 위한 생태공학 기술의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 응용생태공학회가 설립되어 생태공학 분야의 연구와 기술개발에 기여하고 있는데, 생태공학분야 인력 양성에 필수적인 교육의 목표나 내용은 체계가 잡혀있지 못하다. 2015년 응용생태공학 포럼-'생태공학 교육의 터잡기'에서 생태공학 교육의 국제적 동향과 국내 실정에 대해 발제하고 토의한 내용을 중심으로 정리하였다. 생태공학 교육은 인간에 의해 교란된 생태계를 지속가능하도록 복원시킴과 아울러 인간과 생태계의 공동이익을 추구하는 새로운 지속가능한 생태계를 설계 운영할 수 있는 인력을 양성할 수 있어야 한다. 생태공학이 직면하게 될 세 가지의 도전에 대응할 수 있는 교육이 되어야 한다. 인간과 생태계의 공동 이익이라는 목표에서 인간사회와 자연 사이의 균형을 어떻게 정의할 것인가 하는 윤리적 도전, 유관학문 분야는 물론 산업, 정책, 교육, 훈련의 융화를 꾀하는 관계적 도전, 마지막으로 생태학과 공학뿐 아니라 사회과학과 인문과학이 소통하여 융합하는 지적 도전을 극복할 수 있는 교과과정이어야 한다. 이를 위해 생태학과 생태공학을 중심으로 하는 핵심교과목의 하위에 자연과학과 공학 기초과목을 두어 학부과정에 편성하고, 상위에 전공학문 별로 심화된 핵심교과목을 두어 대학원과정으로 편성하는 것이 필요하다.

The needs for ecological engineering, which can design ecosystems that integrate human society and their natural environment for the benefit of both, has increased. The Korean Society of Ecology and Infrastructure Engineering (KSEIE) was established for this purpose and has contributed to the research and development of theories and technologies in related fields. However, the current state of educational services and contents of ecological engineering is still needed to be standardized and systematized. In this paper, we outlined the trends of ecological engineering education at international and domestic levels and proposed a sample services and curriculum, brought from the discussions and suggestions made during the forum, Founding the Education for Ecological Engineering, held by the KSEIE. Education of ecological engineering can nurture people who can design and manage ecosystems for the benefits of human and natural society and can restore ecosystems disturbed artificially. The services and curriculum have to meet and cover the challenges facing the future of ecological engineering; a. the ethical interpretation of the balance between human and nature, b. developing and strengthening its relationship with other scientific disciplines and societies - business, policy, education, and practitioners, c. identify and fuse the key ecological engineering principles into other discipline. We proposed a three layers curriculum system, basic (mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, etc.), core (ecology, hydrology, engineering, etc.), and advanced subjects. The first two can belong to an undergraduate program and the last two can be put into graduate program. The selection of subjects is according to the purpose and needs of the major.
