Abstract
As the competitiveness of university education and the demand for innovation have increased, a flexible educational system considering the characteristics of universities has become necessary. In particular, in the case of K-university, the intensive semester of Graduation Design, which dramatically improves the educational purpose, content, evaluation, and operation method of the graduate design subject, in order to cultivate a creative engineer capable of actively responding to technological change and solving practical problems. K University's intensive semester of graduation design was operated in two majors in the first semester in 2018, and three majors in the first semester in 2019. A result of survey on the status and effectiveness of intensive semester of graduation design was conducted for participating instructors and students, it was shown that the purpose of introducing intensive semester of graduation design, such as improving the instruction time, the quality of the graduation work and cultivating the competency of the student, was effective.
