1999년 한국공학교육인증원이 창립된 이래 2001년 2개 대학의 인증 평가 실시 이후 2005년 현재 전국공과대학의 10%가 인증 평가가 이루어졌다. 인증기준을 만족시키기 위한 공과대학들의 교육적 노력들을 통해 공학교육인증제도가 한국공학교육을 변화시키고 있는 것이 사실이다. 인증을 준비하는 많은 대학들은 공학교육개선을 위한 통합시스템을 개발하였으며 전국의 50개 이상의 공학교육센터들이 만들어졌다. 또한 학생들에 대한 지속적인 상담과 관찰, 포트폴리오 지도, CQI 등을 통해 공학교육이 개선되고 있음은 매우 고무적이다. 그러나 인증을 준비하는 대학들이 공인원의 인증 평가 기준을 만족시키기 위해 최선의 노력을 하고 있지만 지금까지 유지되어 오던 교육시스템을 수정해야 하는 어려움을 겪고 있다. 더욱이 해마다 공인원의 평가기준이 엄격해 지고 있는 현실에서 이를 준비하는 학교들은 각 기준을 만족하는 수준과 주요 요소들에 대해 분명한 가이드라인을 알고 있지 못하다. 따라서 본 연구는 2006년 인증평가를 받은 4개 종합대학의 예비논평서 분석을 통해 공인원의 인증평가 기준의 주요 요소와 수준을 정리하고 이를 통해 인증을 준비하는 대학들이 최소한 준비해야 할 내용들을 제시하며 공인원이 각 대학에 제시해 주어야 할 요소들을 제언하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the current conditions of the domestic and foreign curricula in the field of chemical engineering and to draw implications. The results of the study are as follows. Most of the domestic research universities (including non-certified universities) have curricula organized within the scope of the ABEEK certification, which is the minimum standard guide for chemical engineering curricula. However, we are concerned that chemical engineering education in some domestic universities may lack in education quality and program relevance. Graduates from these universities may not have equivalent qualifications as international graduates. It is considered that most of the 12 domestic universities organize their subjects according to the certificate of accreditation standard and to the traditional subjects of chemistry in the 'Department of Chemical Engineering' or 'Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering Chemical and Biological Engineering'. However, due to the increase in the number of overlapping subjects with other majors because of the movement towards academic diversity, the integrity of the chemical engineering curricula is at risk. In addition, after surveying the major and research areas of the department professors, it has been found that there is a shortage of professors who have majored in chemical engineering. Therefore, there is a concern that students may lack understanding of the core principles of chemical engineering. The results of the analysis of the curricula of overseas research universities (including non-certified universities) are as follows. Although the chemical engineering industry in developed countries like the United States and Europe is advancing and changing very quickly, the chemical engineering education in these countries is highly focused on traditional subjects and other related subjects in order to cultivate traditionally trained chemical engineers. The Department of Chemical Engineering at overseas universities still maintains the academic integrity of the chemical engineering field. This is a significant suggestion for our country. On the other hand, domestic universities are changing the name of their chemical engineering major, or even if the name is maintained, they are fusing their curriculum with other majors such as material engineering. Therefore, it is very necessary at this point to start a discussion regarding the integrity of the department of chemical engineering in Korea. We hope that the departments of chemical engineering in domestic universities maintain the integrity of traditional chemical engineering while operating the curriculum within the scope of the standards of the engineering education certification system.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the performance of ABEEK accredited engineering program in D University. Based on engineering students' perceptions, this study explores how well the students are aware of the accredited engineering program, what change has been made to the courses, to what extent they have been participating in class and interacting with teachers and other students, to what extent they have been actively participating in extra-curricular activities, and to what extent they have achieved program outcomes. The survey was conducted in Fall 2014. The results are as follows: First, the students are well aware of the accredited engineering program; however, they are rarely aware of program outcomes. Second, the students were more satisfied with the major and design courses compared to the MSC and general education courses. Third, the students were more actively participated in the major and design courses compared to the MSC and general education courses. Fourth, the students were passively engaged in extra-curricular activities. Finally, the program outcomes related to soft skills showed low-achievement.

This study presents an analysis of the current situation (management, approach, adjustment, transportation, and others) of teaching portfolio by examining the teaching portfolio managers (staffs, researchers, teaching assistants, etc.) of 6 universities in the southeast of Korea. The rationale for the study focus is that the existing teaching portfolio either suffers a problem in the transportation, approach, adjustment and/or management or is likely to raise a problem in the future. In order to solve this problem, this study builds a web-based e-teaching portfolio. According to the analysis results, the engineering education system was established in all 6 universities (Ed- note that '6 universities' has already been specified as the study sample). The teaching portfolio was partially digitalized in this system, despite some problems of converting analog data into digital data, which induced difficulties in constructing the overall e-teaching portfolio. Therefore, this study focused on constructing an e-teaching portfolio without developing any additional system by using the existing system positively, and also on determining the appropriate components among the existing teaching portfolio components. Accordingly, in order to convert the analog data into the digital data required for this study, we used a digital camera as the conversion device and converted the teaching portfolio components into those appropriate for the e-teaching portfolio. Finally, we constructed an existing system appropriate for the e-teaching portfolio by using these devices and components.

Professional communication skills in writing and speaking with multiple and complex audiences are required to engineers in society of modern technology. In this paper, we proposed the effective assessment system for the Program Outcomes on the communication skill competence(PO7), which is one of the 12 program outcomes stipulated by ABEEK (Accreditation Board for Engineering Education of Korea). To ensure logical connectivity of the assessment system, we carefully selected the performance criteria by defining the core concept of "written communication" and "verbal communication". Based on the selected performance criteria, the whole process of creating assessment tools and rubrics was explained in detail. It can be expected that the assessment for the Program Outcomes on the communication skill competence would be more systematic by using the proposed assessment system.

본 논문에서는 이공계 융합교육 중에서도 공학과 인문학을 융합하기 위한 교육방안의 하나로 공학윤리 교과에서 기술철학을 가르치는 것을 제안한다. 이를 위하여 먼저 공학과 인문학의 융합이 필요한 이유에 대한 몇 가지 논변들을 소개하고, 이어서 현재 한국의 공학교육에서 이러한 필요가 어떻게 충족되고 있는지를 다각도로 살펴본다. 이어서 기술철학을 공학윤리 교과에서 가르치는 것이 가지는 장점과 기대효과를 분석해 본다. 기술철학의 도입을 통해 공학의 중요성과 공학자의 영향력을 실감하게 되면 공학자의 자부심에서 우러나오는 윤리적 태도를 기대할 수 있게 된다. 이 제안은 2008년과 2009년에 한동대학교에서 개설한 공학윤리 교과에서 시범적으로 적용되었는데, 전반적으로 긍정적인 발전 가능성을 볼 수 있었다.
