The objective of this study is to supply the good quality of experts the radiation industries in Korea and develop the major subject matter needed in the radiation industries and the curriculum in order to execute it for the variation of fields of employment at the department of radiation in the junior college and the development of the percentage of employment. In addition, this study is to improve the level of radiation experts engaged in the industries in quality, and it is to improve the social recognition of radiation rather negative now because of the development of radiation industry. As for the core results of this research, it was to suggest the detailed choice method curriculum proper to the service fields of radiation industries, but it may be subject to change due to each college's property and the educational objectives. From the result of this research above, it may be summed up as follows. First, as for the detailed curriculum by the service field, this study was to organize two subject matters: 1. the subject matter proper to the field of using the radiation, and 2. the subject matters proper to the safety control field of radiation. Second, as for the detailed curriculum by the pattern of industries, this study was to organize the four subject matters: 1. the subject matter needed in the manufactures, 2. the subject matter needed in the nondestructive testing industries, 3. the subject matter needed in the sales agencies, and 4. the subject matter needed in the laboratories. This study was to suggest the operational model about the curriculum in order to execute these subject matters. It could be executed as two methods below. First, one method is to execute the major systems by the medical field and industrial field in the third course at the department of radiation in the junior college now. Second, the other method is to make them specialize the industrial radiation in the Advanced Course(one year course) after the graduation of junior college. To operate these curricula successively it needs to assume the deeper research and the development of materials about the subject matters related to the nuclear radiation industries hereafter. In addition, it needs to solve the security of finance like the manpower of professor, space for practice, and the educational appliances, etc. needed in the operation of subject matters. Finally, the effect and result from the development or revision of college curriculum did not come out in a short time. It will require considerable time until the undergraduates at the department in the junior college finish a set of curriculum newly developed, and graduate the university, and can get the results while they engage in their works in the industrial sites. Accordingly, all the interested parties have to anticipate the results of this research with the patience in long-standing point of view.

This study was conducted to serve as a basis for education by identifying the correlation of college admission type, college-life satisfaction and academic achievement of radiologic science students. Data were collected from 2 universities and 2 colleges located in Gyeonggi Provice, North Chungcheong Province, North Gyeongsang Province. A total of 371 questionnaires were collected, 363 of which were included in this study. The results showed that there were no differences in academic achievement according to the type of college admission. It could be able to interpret that since department of radiologic science is popular, students with high academic records applies the department of radiologic science and there are less deviation of academic records among students. A correlation analysis of academic achievement showed learning attitude is a statistically valid factor. Learning attitudes can be changed by exposure to the environment. This will require a variety of program development for improving learning attitudes. In addition, academic achievement of radiologic science students is associated with license acquisition. It need to be made together research on determinants and development of learning method to improve the learning attitude.

RI-Biomics is a promising radiation convergence technology that combines radiation with bio science as new growth power technology. Many developed countries are focusing active support and constant exertion to dominate the RI-Biomics market in advance. In order to achieve global leadership in the RI-Biomics field, we need more highly advanced technologies and professional manpower. In fact, we have less manpower compared to technology we currently hold. In this study, we established a basic infrastructure to train professional manpower in the RI-Biomics field by developing/operating optimum training program through expert interviews and survey. The developed program has four organized sections to understand overall procedure of RI-Biomics. To evaluate our training program, we performed test operations with eight students who have a major related to RI-Biomics for three weeks in KARA (Seoul) and KAERI (Jung-eup). In detail, radioisotope usage and safety management were conducted for one week as basic course, RI-Biomics application technology was conducted for two weeks as professional course. To verify performance results of training program, we conducted to journal research, daily reports, and survey on participants. The results show a high level of satisfaction with training programs and continuous intention of involvement in our program. We also need to develop an intensive course to train high-quality human resources and to operate training program continuously. This training program will be used as basic materials for the development of RI-Biomics curriculum for university. Hence, we will expect that our training program contributes in training a professional manpower and develop RI-Biomics technology.

1975년 우라늄협회로 출발한 세계원자력협회(WNA)는 원자력을 평화적으로 이용하는 것을 적극 지원하고, 원자력 발전과 핵연료주기 전반에 걸친 원자력 산업 발전을 위하고자 설립한 세계적 민간 기구로, 우라늄 채광부터 변환, 농축, 핵연료 제조, 원자력발전 운영, 기자재(설비) 제작 및 사용후핵연료 처분에 이르기까지 원자력발전의 전 주기 산업을 촉진하고 관련 정보를 지원하고 있다. 2001년 지금의 명칭으로 변경한 WNA는 전 세계 원자력산업체와 원자력 관련 기관, 대학 등 175개 회원사를 두고 상호 협력과 전문 인력 교육 기반 강화, 국제화에 적극 나서고 있으며, 원자력산업 정보 제공과 교환을 위해 관련 보고서와 자료도 수시로 발행하고 있다. 2013년부터 WNA를 이끌고 있는 아그네타 라이징 사무총장은 지난 11월 영국 런던 소재 WNA를 방문한 <원자력신문>과의 인터뷰를 통해, 원전과 주변지역 주민의 갑상선암 발병에 대한 인과 관계에 대하여 "갑상선암 발병이 원전과 연관성 있다는 주장은 과학적 근거가 없다"고 단호히 말하고, "한국과 유사한 사례가 해외 원자력계(과학계)와 의학계에 보고된 적이 있냐"는 질문에 "해외에서 정상 운영되고 있는 원전 시설은 국제방사선방호위원회(ICRP)의 엄격한 기준(ICRP-60)이 적용하고 있으며, 방사선 방호와 관련된 연구보고서(논문)를 꾸준히 내고 있지만 원전 주변 주민에 대한 여러 역학 조사에서도 갑상선암이 증가했다는 사례는 보고된 바 없다"고 말했다. 또한 "실제로 일본 원폭 생존자 연구와 체르노빌 원전 주변 주민 연구에 의하면 20세 이상의 성인에서 방사선 노출에 의해 갑상선암이 증가한다는 증거는 없었다."면서 "체르노빌 사고와 후쿠시마 원전 사고 이후 방사선 누출로 인해 방사선이 갑상선암의 발생률을 증가시키는 것으로 알려졌지만 실제로 원전에서 발생하는 방사능은 갑상선암을 유발시킬 수 있는 양에 비해 아주 적다. 그럼에도 원전 시설에서 나오는 방사능 수치에 대해 제대로 밝히는 기관이 없기 때문에 원전 주변에 살아도 영향을 받는 것으로 오해할 수 있다."고 덧붙였다. 아그네타 라이징 사무총장은 스웨덴 출신의 방사선 방호 전문가로, 스웨덴 국영기업 Vattenfall AB 그룹에서 원자력 에너지 환경 분야 최고 전문가로 활동했으며, 스웨덴원자력학회, 유럽원자력학회, 세계여성원자력전문인회(WiN-Global) 회장 등을 역임했다. 인터뷰 전문을 게재한다.
