The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the satisfaction of college students majoring in healthcare-related fields with their major and with their clinical practice on their career decision-making level and to investigate the mediating effect of their satisfaction with clinical practice on the relationship between their satisfaction with their major and their career decision-making level. The subjects were 180 college students who had completed clinical practice as part of their healthcare-related majors at C University in A-gun, B-do Province. Their completed questionnaires were collected between March 2 and March 5, 2020; 165 questionnaires were used for the data analysis. Questionnaires with missing or insincere responses were excluded. According to the results of this study, the students showed a mean of 3.99 points in their satisfaction with their major, 3.33 points in their career decision-making level, and 3.71 points in their satisfaction with clinical practice. Statistically significant positive correlations were found between the students' satisfaction with their major, their career decision-making level, and their satisfaction with clinical practice. In addition, their satisfaction with clinical practice produced a partial mediating effect on the relationship between their satisfaction with their major and their career decision-making level, and those with a higher level of satisfaction with their major and with their clinical practice also presented higher career decision-making levels. Therefore, the present study suggests that healthcare-related students' satisfaction with their major and with clinical practice should be enhanced to increase their career decision-making levels.

목적: 보건의료 관리 분야의 진로는 급변하는 사회적 요구와 시대적 흐름에 발맞추어 다양한 형태로 변화하여 왔다. 본 연구에서는 학습 수요자 측면으로 교과과정에 대한 만족도와 보건의료 계열 취업에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하여 보건의료 계열 학과 학생들의 취업률을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안을 도출하고자 한다. 방법: 경기도 성남시 소재 보건의료 계열 학과 163명을 대상으로 2013년 5월 6일부터 5월 9일까지 설문조사를 거쳐 분석을 실시하였다. 결과: 성별에 따른 교육과정의 만족도는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았으나, 고학년으로 올라갈수록 교육과정에 대한 만족도가 낮은 것으로 분석되었다. 성별과 학년에 따라 자격증 취득 계획 여부는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 즉, 성별이 여학생이고 학년이 낮을수록 전공관련 자격증 취득 계획이 높았다. 전공관련 자격증 취득에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 '성별', '학년(학번)', '보건의료계열 분야로의 취업 여부'가 유의하게 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 보건의료계열 취업 여부에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 '교육과정 만족도', '전공관련 자격증 취득 계획'이 통계학적으로 유의하게 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 결론: 보건의료관련 학과 학생들의 동일계열 취업률을 향상시키기 위해서는 전공관련 자격증 취득에 직접 간접적으로 영향을 미치는 학생들의 요구를 파악하여 교육과정에 반영하는 것이 중요할 것이다.
