Abstract
The paradigm of engineering education has evolved from subject-centered learning to student -centered learning. In particular, instructional laboratories can be an essential part of studentcentered learning. The curriculum of instructional laboratories in the departments of materials science and engineering, Yonsei University has been investigated. Student surveys on thecurriculum were also carried out. The curriculum was found to develop after reforming it on the basis of student-centered learning. Student feedback reflects that the new curriculum promoted student's active learning and that student's needs of instructional laboratories were considered in the curriculum.
