臺灣大專院校資訊相關系所課程內容與資訊人才職能需求情形之評估

An Evaluation of Taiwan’s College Course Requirements in Information-Related Programs and the Competencies required by the Market

本研究目的是探究在臺灣學界與業界，資通訊科技相關專業人才供需情形。研究採用次級資料分析法，統整近年經濟部工業局重點產業專業人才需求推估的調查報告，以及參考美國課程指南IS2010、CE2016知識內容及其相對應課程領域，分別探討臺灣大專院校資訊管理、資訊工程相關學系的開課情形。經過三階段篩選後，八間公私立大專院校之資訊管理、資訊工程相關學系為人才培育的代表樣本。分析其教學相關資料後得知，資訊管理相關學系在兩個課程領域開課量充足、資訊工程相關學系在三個課程領域開課量充足。開課量充足的課程領域可涵蓋較多職業別，可視為有滿足職能需求；然而，未來產業需求人才的培育，目前臺灣大專院校開課情形是否涵蓋多個資通訊科技相關課程領域，值得本研究提出探討。

The purpose of this study is to investigate the supply-and-demand status of information and communication technology professionals in certain industries and learning institutions in Taiwan. The study adopts secondary data analysis methods to summarize Taiwan’s Industrial Development Bureau’s “Needs Assessment Survey of Professional Labors in Key Industries” collected in recent years. We also reviewed the academic program guides in the United States (IS2010 and CE2016), especially the body of knowledge and their corresponding course areas, which are referenced by Taiwan’s information management and information engineering programs, respectively. After a three-stage filtering procedure, eight public and private colleges were selected as a representative analysis sample for talent development, and the course offering status of these colleges was examined. The analysis results show that information management programs offer plenty of courses in two areas, whereas information engineering programs have an abundance of courses in three areas. Areas that have sufficient course offerings can cover more job types and can be viewed as putting school learning into practice. However, the key industries will involve more course areas in the future. It is thus a worthy effort to discuss the status of course offerings in the selected colleges.
