Analysis of required core courses of electronic engineering by graduates, teachers, and electronics industry at Sze Hai Junior College of Technology and Commerce in Taiwan.
The purpose of this study was to ascertain the opinions of graduates, teachers, and employers on identified competency elements of the electronic engineering technology programs at Sze Hai Junior College of Technology in Taipei, Taiwan, Republic of China.; The study began in September 1995, and the data for this study were collected from a total of 285 graduates of Electronic Engineering Department of Sze Hai Junior College of Technology and Commerce, 36 teachers, and 36 employers who employed the graduates during the course of study.; Particularly the study addressed the following questions: (1) How important are selected electronic engineering competencies? (2) What is the level of proficiency in the selected competency elements required by graduates for entering into jobs as electronic engineering technicians? (3) Are there any differences in the ratings on the level of importance and the level of proficiency of selected competency elements as perceived by graduates, teachers, and employers?; To address these questions the researcher developed a questionnaire which included 111 competency elements concerning the current electronic engineering technology programs in Sze Hai Junior College of Technology and Commerce to be rated by the participants on a five-point scale.; The Wilcoxon matched-paired signed-ranked test was selected to test the significance of the nine hypotheses. To determine the significant difference among selected competency elements, the sign test and Chi-square test for one degree of freedom were employed by the investigator. The 0.05 significant level was applied in the study.; Based upon the data analysis, all the null hypotheses were rejected except Ho8. The research concluded that (a) there were significant differences on both the level of importance and the level of proficiency rated by graduates, teachers, and employers, (b) there were significant differences on the level of importance in the ratings made by graduates versus teachers, graduates versus employers, and teachers versus employers, and (c) there were significant differences on the level of proficiency in the ratings made by graduates versus teachers, and teachers versus employers. Since hypothesis eight was accepted, no significant difference existed on the level of proficiency in the ratings made by graduates versus employers.
