二年制技術學院學生升學與就業意向之研究－以中部某技術學院二技畢業生為例

目的：探討技術學院二技學生畢業後選擇升學或就業的意向，以及影響二技畢業生選擇升學或就業的主要因素。方法：本研究以橫斷性研究法，對中台醫護技術學院九十一學年度日間部二技應屆畢業生八個科系十班共389位同學，以結構式問卷進行調查，最後完成359份問卷，回收率為92.3%。結果：一、二技學生選擇升學者佔21.4%，選擇就業者較高佔78.3%。在選擇升學的科系中以食品科學系最高佔35%，而選擇就業的各科系大都介於70~80%之間。二、二技學生選擇升學的目的主要是為取得較高學歷(41.6%)以及因應未來職場需求(40.3%)。進一步探討二技學生選擇升學的因素，其結果發現，因社會重視文憑、培養第二專長、想從事較高階的工作為主要原因共佔50%。三、二技學生畢業後近80%選擇就業，其主要理由大都是為了改善家中經濟環境(37.9%)。在選擇工作時最主要的考量因素為待遇(20.1%)，其次為穩定性與保障(17.7%)。四、探討影響二技學生選擇升學或就業的因素，發現與性別、在校系別、是否曾打工有顯著的相關。建議：一、二技畢業生：多數學生對其專業知識、專業技能及應變能力有信心，但對其實務經驗及語言能力信心不足，為此培養自身的第二專長及語言能力的訓練，以提升學生未來社會競爭力顯得格外重要。二、學校行政單位：學校有關教學、就業輔導單位應讓學生了解目前社會的需求，同時思索及改進有關課程規劃、就業輔導之相關業務，達成技職教育之產業與教育並用的目標。三、教育及政府單位：相關單位應加強及落實各類行業專業證照的施行，藉此增加學生的學習動機，讓專業技能獲得更多肯定與認同，以強化各類學生之自信心。

This study investigated influences on the decisions of seniors graduating from two-year colleges regarding whether to either continue their education or to enter into the job market upon graduation. The cross-sectional method was employed. Structural questionnaires, modified based on validity examination, were sent to 389 seniors studying at the Chungtai Institute of Health Sciences and Technology. 359 of the 389 seniors returned completed questionnaires, representing a response rate of 92.3%. Overall, this investigation found that 21.4% of the students planned to continue their education, while the majority (78.3%) planned to enter the workforce. Of all departments, the Department of Food Science contained the highest percentage rate of students planning to seek further education (35%). In all departments, the percentage of students choosing to enter the job market ranged from 70% to 80%. Generally, the two main reasons for respondents to continue their education were to receive higher degrees (41.6%) and to fulfill educational requirements connected with their future employment plans (40.3%). Additionally, it was found that 50% of respondents planned to continue their education simply to gain social status, a second area of expertise, or a white collar job. Approximately 80% of the students chose to seek employment. The main reason for this choice was to improve family income (37.9%). Moreover, the study found that salary (20.1%), job security and stability (17.7%) were related to the key factors considered during job selection. Finally, the results demonstrated that the influences on student plans following graduation were significantly associated with gender, college major, and part-time work experience. This study indicates that most students have confidence in their professional knowledge, skills, and adaptability, yet lack confidence in their practical experience and linguistic abilities. Therefore, it is important for students to have a second specialty and to improve their English abilities. The school should provide students with information on the employment needs of society. Moreover, the government should enforce professional licensing policies.
