  • By comparing the understandings of theology major with science major in a college, this study investigates how theology major students view the origin of universe and life and how they portray the view of sciences. In addition, this study examines how theology majors change their viewpoints through a series of lectures related to understanding of the modem sciences. Twenty six theology majors and nineteen science education majors participated in the survey investigation. For theology majors, questionnaire data revealed that 42% of theology majors support theistic evolution, while 42% responses with young and old Earth creation and none with evolutionism. On the other hand, most respondents in science education major espoused evolutionism and no one with extreme creationism. Most respondents with creationism shared the insights that science is an instrument for describing the creator's work, whereas most with evolutionisms perceived science as a logical and descriptive system of the natural world. After taking science courses, the theology majors' support of an extreme view like young Earth creationism has decreased by 4% (was 23%), while their support of the theistic evolution increased by a small percentage. This result lends support to the idea that science related courses helps theology major undergraduate students to understand the scientific evolutionism based on their theological backgrounds.

  • The study aims to find a way to guarantee high school students choose science subjects by exploring its necessity as a prerequisite for admission to university science and engineering major courses. For this purpose, a survey was administered to 516 science & engineering college students to investigate their cognition and completion of the prerequisite science subjects related to their major, department adjustment, and influence on their major of study. Among nine major clusters, Physics was identified as a science domain with a high relevance to majors in five major clusters, and Chemistry in three. The students who completed both science I and II subjects related to their majors responded most positively to the usefulness of prerequisite subjects to their studies. Suggestions include conditions for the opening of science II subjects, strengthening the connection between science subjects and IT, promotion of linkage between the prerequisite subject and major studies to assert students' choice of science subjects in high school.
