Abstract

This study aims to develop and operate an extracurricular program based on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by applying the design thinking methodology to enable engineering students to discover and solve relatable local problems in the field of intelligent robots in order to foster creative and convergent engineering talents. As a result of the analysis, the overall satisfaction score was 4.55 or higher, all related competencies increased, and the students' final results also showed a connection with the SDGs topic in the field of intelligent robots. At a time when SDGs are establishing sustainable activities as an important evaluation index in university education, it is expected that the development case of this program can be utilized in the development of a convergence program for engineering students to foster creative and convergent talents who can lead the future society along with the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution.

본 연구는 창의융합형공학인재 양성을 위해 공학계열 학생들에게 지능형 로봇 분야의 공감할 수 있는 지역 문제를 발견하고 해결할 수 있도록 디자인씽킹 방법론을 적용하여 SDGs(Sustainable Development Goals)를 기반 비교과 프로그램을 개발 및 운영 효과를 탐색하는데 목적이 있다. 분석 결과, 전체 만족도 모두 4.55점 이상, 관련 역량들이 모두 증가하였으며 학생들의 최종 결과물에서도 지능형 로봇 분야 SDGs 주제와 연관성이 있었다. SDGs가 대학 교육에서 지속가능한 활동들이 중요한 평가 지표로 자리잡고 있는 시점에 공학계열 학생들에게도 본 프로그램의 개발 사례가 4차 산업혁명 시대와 함께 미래 사회를 이끌어나 갈 수 있는 창의융합형 인재 양성을 위한 융복합 프로그램 개발에 활용될 수 있기를 기대한다.
