We empirically verified whether there are different educational investment behaviors according to university admissions, using the Korean Education and Employment Panel data. The results are as follows; the average annual private education cost and the average amount of time spent studying alone per week of rolling admission type were lower than those of regular admission type. Also, rolling admission applicants had longer leisure and sleeping hours, such as watching TV and using computers. These results show the possibility that the university admission system will change the educational investment behavior. Furthermore, there is a possibility to induce the human capital investment to be made efficiently.

The major purposes of this study were 1) to present a desirable guideline for writers who would develop the new Introduction-to-Industry textbook through the comparative analysis of 4 different kinds of current Introduction-to-Industry textbooks, 2) to help educators, who make national college entrance exam in the vocational inquiry area, make good exam items with the results of the study, and 3) to offer effective methods of teaching and learning in the field of industrial education with them. Research method used in this study was mainly literature review with the scrutinization of the literature related to the Introduction-to-Industry textbooks. Results of this study showed that all textbooks compared do mostly comply with the national writer's specific guidelines for the Introduction-to-Industry textbooks. However there were varieties for the all textbooks in a sense of deployment balance for the contents of the textbook chapters. There were also considerable differences for the deployment of supplementary materials, evaluative materials, visual materials and etc. according to the characteristics of each textbook. The degree of the connectivity between the textbooks and the national college entrance exam in the area of the vocational inquiry was similar for the each textbook. However, it was not good enough for the students to study one textbook for the preparation of the exam in the vocational inquiry area because the problems in the exam were set in the range of covering the all different kinds of textbooks by the examiners.

The purpose of this study is to provide the basic data for establishing a unique admissions promotion strategy for each university and to innovate the paradigm of university admissions promotion through the examples of central universities in the practice of PR promotion based on big data analysis. To this end, prior literature related to university publicity (marketing), and recognition of prospective college students who visited the university, and database data were defined and analyzed as big data. As a result, first, the preliminary studies related to college entrance exam promotion (marketing) increased dramatically in the 2000s and 2010s as part of preparing for countermeasures against population decline in school age. Responding to the need for an admissions promotion strategy to accelerate visits to prospective college students, the database data analysis result suggested the selection and concentration of entrance exam strategies based on the university's regional and academic characteristics.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the problems of the way of the 32th TOPIK(advanced)'s management for the disabled examinee and to prescribe the management of the TOPIK for them. Since the TOPIK started in 1997, the number of examinee who take it as a qualifying exam for the university entrance have gradually increased. The first disabled examinee who wants to use the result of the TOPIK for entrance into the post graduated university took the 32th TOPIK(advanced level). However, there was no examination regulations and detailed management method for the disabled. The biggest problem was the examinee could not have braille test and answer. The exam supervisor read all that is printed on the test sheet. It caused two big problems. 1) The essay question in writing test became an oral test. 2) The strategies of answering to multiple choice questions could not be used in vocabulary/grammar, writing, listening, and specially reading section. The first problem is occurred because writing and speaking have different cognitive process. The second one can be strongly related to the result in reading section. Above all, these disrupt accurate assessment of the examinee's writing and reading achievement. Therefore, this research insists the TOPIK needs to have the regulation and prescribe the management for the disabled. This research suggests 5 regulations for the blind examinee which covers the test time, supervisor, place and request of the examinee. These refer to the regulation for the disable in the other tests, such as the college scholarship ability test, TOEFL, TEPS, and a civil service exam.

The Ministry of Education of Korea announced the university structural reform plans which reduces 160,000 of the university entrance quota during 10 years from January 2014. Because the reduction plans of entrance quota influence regional economy as well as students and universities, naive evidence of the Ministry of Education of Korea is disappointed. In this research, we forecast the total number of the university entrance exam candidate by 2032 including not only third grade high school students but also repeaters according to the 16 metropolises and provinces in Korea. We also forecast the regional university recruiting rate using the forecasts of the total number of the university entrance exam candidates. However, we can not make more realistic results because we can not apply the inter-regional movement of students to the forecast. In order to handle this limitation, we first estimated the rank of the whole 7,277 departments of all universities in Korea and assigned the quotas according to the estimated rank for each departments and then we calculated the local university recruiting rate. The estimated the university recruiting rates of 16 metropolises and provinces can provide more noticeable results of characteristics and problems than that of nationwide.

Dose limits are not applied to medical radiation exposure therefore justification and optimization should be essential for protecting radiation. This study explores methods to reduce exposure dose undergoing general radiation exam by bolus(tissue equivalent material) with keeping image quality. Hand PA projection with 50 kVp, 5 mAs, SID 100 cm, and 8×10 inch is referred by covered bolus of thickness 0, 3, 5, 8, and 10 mm for evaluation entrance dose and SNR. The entrance dose (μGy) to the hand by bolus thickness was 125.41±0.288, 106.85±0.255, 104.97±0.221, 91.68±0.299, and 90.94±0.106 showing a significant reduction in radiation exposure depending on if the bolus was used and bolus thickness. The SNR of the image was 13.997, 13.906, 12.240, 12.538, and 12.548 at each bolus thickness, showing no significant difference. It was confirmed that if appropriate thickness and size of bolus is used depending on the type of radiological imaging exam and the body site, a significant radiation dose reduction effect can be achieved without deteriorating image quality.
