  Abstract

The influx of innovation is urgently required to the fiber(textile) engineering education in Korea. In this review, we analyzed the present situation of both the industrial (engineering) ecosystem and the engineering education, and forecasted the direction where the fiber engineering education is going on. Rapid changes such as an increase in income level, a decrease in birth-rate, and reshaping the human lifestyle are taking place in Korea. Continuous improvement is required to the contents and the objectives of engineering education in each program. There are some serious problems for most of the students in universities, including a reduction in the credits for graduation, numerical decrease in entrance as well as graduation, the longer duration in universities, the increase in the unemployment ratio, the paradigm shift in education environment. To cope with the tremendous changes in industrial (engineering) ecosystem, we suggest that an expansion of using convergence technology, specialization for differentiation in education, improvement of educational content, and selective induction of an engineering accreditation system with the help of academic society are inevitable for the sustain-ability of fiber (textile) engineering education.
