Abstract

For high school students in Jeonbuk, this study aims to identify the problems caused by outflow of local youth population and their preference factors to enter university in Seoul-metropolitan area, and to draw out the direction of local human resources program, through questionnaire investigation and focused group interview. The main findings are as follows: First, 68.8% of high school students, especially the top grade students prefer to enter university in metropolitan area. The metropolitan cultural characteristics, such as reputation of universities and ranking, openness and anonymity, and urban infrastructure attract students. Second, there is a close relationship between the individual background, growth area - enrollment area - employment area, and the location dependency without return migration is very strong. Third, local human resources program was evaluated as a meaningful activity for high school students, in order to understand the further education and career, and have an interest in local universities. Therefore, it is necessary to discover industries consistent with local identity, create networks, develop and implement programs considering the actual educational conditions. The gender-free program, supplement program for the integrated curriculum, and contents that to supplement science subjects should be developed. Additionally, this issue could be resolved expanding the perspective of balanced national development and improve the local environment to enhance the urban attraction points.

본 연구는 전북지역 고등학생의 수도권대학 진학 선호 현황 및 요인에 대한 조사, 분석을 통해 지방 청년인구의 수도권 지향 유출로 인한 문제를 파악하고, 지역인재 양성 프로그램 운영의 방향을 도출하고자 수행되었다. 주요 결과는 첫째, 조사결과 성적 상위권 중심으로 68.8%의 고등학생이 수도권대학 진학을 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. 수도권 소재 대학의 명성과 대학 서열화, 개방성이나 익명성 등 대도시의 문화적 특성, 안정적 도시기반시설 등을 누릴 수 있다는 강점이 구체적 흡인 요인으로 작용했다. 둘째, 개인의 지역적 배경인 성장지역-진학지역-취업지역 간의 상관관계는 밀접하며, 귀환이동의 발생없이 진학지역이 취업지역으로 전환되는 공간종속성은 매우 강하게 나타났다. 셋째, 지역대학의 인재양성 프로그램은 지역의 고등학생들을 대상으로 진학 및 진로설계, 지역대학에 대한 관심의 계기 제공 등 의미있는 활동으로 평가받았다. 효과적인 지역인재 양성 프로그램은 지역정체성을 반영한 산업의 발굴과 네트워크 조성, 프로그램 개발과 교육현장 여건을 반영해 이루어져야 한다. 젠더 구분없는 프로그램을 시행, 문·이과 통합 교육과정의 문제점을 보완하고 기초 과학 학력 저하를 방지할 수 있는 컨텐츠의 개발도 병행해야 한다. 궁극적으로 지역균형발전 관점에서의 접근, 수도권 수준 도시인프라의 확충과 각종 지역균형발전사업과 연계해 지역 환경을 개선함으로써, 수도권 지향 문제를 해결해야 한다.
