This research aims to explore the factors affecting engineering students' major persistence and career decision. To achieve this goal, the experiences and perceptions of engineering students and other stakeholders regarding the factors influencing engineering students' major persistence and career decision were analyzed through online focus group interviews (FGI). The analysis of the interviews resulted in the identification of seven categories, which include meeting with older alumni, team project experiences, and internship experiences as factors influencing major persistence. Additionally, engineering interest, engineering self-efficacy, employment rates, economic factors, and limitations in women engineers' career development were identified as factors affecting career decision. Based on these findings, it is expected that engineering education will develop plans that focus on supporting the major persistence and career development of engineering students, thereby contributing to the future direction of engineering education.

본 연구는 ICT 수출기업을 대상으로 하여 수출성과에 미치는 영향요인들을 실증적으로 분석하고자 하는데 그 목적이 있었다. 연구모형은 선행연구에서 논의되었던 변수들을 중심으로 하여 수출성과에 미치는 요인들을 크게 기업특성 요인, 마케팅 특성요인, 수출지원제도 특성요인 등 3개의 변수로 설정하였고, 종속변수로 수출성과를 비 재무적 성과로 설정하여 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 수출성과에 영향을 미치는 변수 중 기업특성 요인(CEO 시장 지향성, 수출경쟁력, 수출경험)과 마케팅 특성요인(해외 시장 다변화, 마케팅 애로 요인)은 수출 성과로 설정한 비 재무적 성과에 영향을 미치는 변수임을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 수출지원제도 특성 요인은 비 재무적 성과에 영향을 미치지 않는 변수임을 알 수 있었다.
