In this study, we attempted to investigate the employment situation of students who have been re -admitted to Korea Polytec College after graduating from or dropping out of college. Through this study, we strived to draw some policy implication for increasing their employment rates. We examined the literature and conducted a survey of Asan Polytec College freshmen. The following are the results of the survey. First, the employment rates of 2013 for the students who have been re-admitted to Korea Polytec College after graduating from or dropping out of college were 88.3% for students in the multi- function program and 81.0% for those in the certified technician program. These employment rates are high in comparison to the average employment rates for junior colleges and universities, which are 61.2% and 55.6% respectively. Second, it has been found that Korea Polytec College has not been operating the convergence manpower training system after test-operating the Crossover Learning System in nine departments in 2010 and stopping them from 2011. Third, it was revealed that Korea Polytec College does not have an official career counseling system for the students who have been re-admitted to Korea Polytec College after graduating from or dropping out of college. Thus, there is no support system for the students who feel their major is not a good fit for them or those who wish to transfer to another college because their chances of employment is low. Fourth, Korea Polytec College does not have a academic exchange such as giving credit to students who take courses in other colleges. Hence, there is a need for a system that allows students to choose multiple majors and receiving credit from courses in other majors while they are attending Korea Polytec College. Fifth, it has been found that a large percentage of students who have been re-admitted to Korea Polytec College after graduating from or dropping out of college become employed through the connection system among various industries and the professors of Korea Polytec College. In 2013, 75.3% of the students in the multi-function program and 81.1% of those in the certified technician program were employed through such system. Based on the research, we would like to make the following proposals which enabled the colleges to increase the employment rates of students who are re-admitted after graduating from or dropping out of college. First, when looking at the high employment rate of the students who have been re-admitted to Korea Polytec College after graduating from or dropping out of college, it seems that their goals of employment have been successful. Second, the colleges must expand the number of Polytec Colleges where students can take courses and receive credit so that students can take a greater advantage of the convergence curriculum system while they are attending Korea Polytec College. Third, Korea Polytec College must establish an official career counseling system for the students who have been re-admitted to Korea Polytec College after graduating from or dropping out of college. Fourth, Korea Polytec College must make it easier for students to choose multiple majors and receive credit for taking courses in other majors. To achieve this, colleges with a low employment rate such as those of humanities, social sciences, and natural science should create an academic exchange with the engineering deparment of Korea Polytech College, which has a high employment rate. Fifth, the colleges must enhance the industry-university cooperation through programs like the Factory-oriented Learning (FL) system which reflects the needs of the industrial setting.

본 연구의 목적은 대졸 또는 대졸 중퇴 후 재 입학자의 취업실태를 살펴보고, 그들의 취업률을 제고시 키는 방안을 찾는데 있다. 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위해 문헌연구와 자료 분석을 하였으며, 한국폴리 텍대학 아산캠퍼스에서 신입생을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 또한 한국폴리텍대학의 재 입학자 를 대상으로 한 관리상의 문제점을 찾아내 그 개선방안을 제시하였다. 본 연구를 위한 실태조사 결과 다음과 같은 점이 발견되었다. 첫째, 대학 중퇴 이상 한국폴리텍대학 재 입학자의 졸업 후 취업률은 2013년에 다기능 과정은 88.3%, 기능사 과정은 81.0%를 기록한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 2013년 전문대 평균 취업률 61.2%, 4년제 대졸 평균 취업률 55.6% 보다 매우 높은 수치다. 둘째, 한국폴리텍대학은 현재 대학중퇴 이상 재 입학자에 대한 융합형 인력양성 시스템을 운영하지 않고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 한국폴리텍대학은 대졸 중퇴 이상 재 입학자를 위한 공식적인 진학 및 진로상담 시스템이 미비한 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 한국 폴리텍대학과 다른 대학 간의 교류학점 인정제나 교환학기제 등 학업교류는 시행되지 않고 있는 것으 로 나타났다. 다섯째, 대학 중퇴 이상 한국폴리텍대학 재 입학자의 전담기업 취업률은 매우 높은 비율 을 차지하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 기초연구를 토대로 다음과 결론을 도출하였다. 첫째, 한국폴리텍대학의 높은 취업률을 놓고 볼 때, 취업을 목적으로 하고 있는 대졸 중퇴 이상 재 입학자들의 목적은 대체로 달성되고 있는 것으로 평 가할 수 있다. 둘째, 재 입학자 융합형 인력양성 시스템을 구축해 유형별로 교양 및 전공 취득학점, 실 습비율 등 커리큘럼을 재편성할 필요가 있다. 셋째, 재 입학자에 대한 적성검사, 진로상담 등 체계적인 전공전환 컨설팅을 해 주는 것이 필요하다. 넷째, 재입학 대학과 입학 전 대학 간 교류학점, 교환학기 등 학업교류를 확대해 나갈 필요가 있다. 다섯째, 재 입학자 취업률 제고를 위해 전담기업제 등 산학협 력 시스템을 더욱 강화해 나갈 필요가 있다.
