본 연구의 목적은 간호대학생의 간호사 이미지와 간호전문직간의 관련성을 파악하기 위함이다. D광역시 소재의 간호학과에 재학 중인 학생 147명을 대상으로, 2013년 3월 11일부터 3월 22일까지 자가 보고식 설문조사로 시행되었다. 연구결과, 간호사 이미지는 동아리 활동, 전공만족도, 대학생활 만족도에 있어 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 간호전문직관은 전공만족도에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 간호대학생의 간호사 이미지와 간호전문직관은 순상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 간호사 이미지 중에는 '사회참여' 영역이 간호전문직관과 가장 큰 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, 간호사 이미지와 가장 강한 상관관계를 나타낸 간호전문직관 하위영역은 '전문직 자아개념'이었다. 그러므로 전공만족도와 대학생활 만족도를 향상시키기 위한 다양한 학습전략 마련, 동아리 활동 장려, 교수의 관심과 지도가 간호대학생의 간호사 이미지와 간호전문직관 향상에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.
