Abstract

This study has the purpose to increase the suitability for the introduction and operation of the curriculum utilizing business simulation games from university education. So we investigated about the usage in management education department of domestic and foreign universities, institutions target for enterprise level education, and giant companies such as Samsung and LG. We surveyed about the demand of it from college students at the management and engineering departments and then designed two basic course models. As research methods, literature research, on-site experts and operators interview on domestic enterprises and institutions of representative companies was conducted. We analysed the course syllabi of some domestic and about 50 foreign universities utilizing it with the literature review. Then we analysed the result of usage investigation and demand survey. According to the results, the relatively small number of universities and corporate institutions compared to U.S. were utilizing it for their training courses in short-term and partial Lab. Results are expected to be used in the training courses of business administration in universities and corporate.

본 연구는 대학에서 경영 시뮬레이션 게임을 활용하는 교과과정의 도입과 운영을 위한 적합성을 높이기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 이를 위해 국내 기업, 기업체 교육기관, 국내외 대학의 활용실태와 수요자인 대학생의 수요를 조사하고 분석하였다. 분석에 기초하여 경영시뮬레이션게임을 적용한 교과모형을 경영대생 대상과 공대생 대상으로 설계하였다. 연구 방법으로는 문헌연구를 통해 연구동향을 확인하고, 국내 기업과 기업체 교육기관의 현장 전문가에 대한 면담조사를 실시하였으며, 국내외 대학의 활용실태를 강의계획서 조사를 통해 분석하였다. 결과로는 소수의 대학과 기업체들이 경영시뮬레이션게임을 부분적으로 실습하는 일부 교과목을 단기간으로 실시하고 있었다. 관련 연구단체가 전무하고 국내 기업의 경영상황과 운영 현실을 반영한 교육콘텐츠들이 상대적으로 부족한 실정이었으나 대학생 수요자의 기대가 크고 현장에서 새로운 경영교육 도구로써 활용성과를 확인하였다는 의의를 갖는다. 연구결과는 대학의 경영학 실습수업과 기업체 직원교육의 교육과정 운영에 사용이 기대된다.
