Reviewing the Changes in Core Competencies for Undergraduates in Technological Universities.

The objectives of this study are to explore the core competency content of electrical engineering & computer science students, as well as the current situation of training. Literature review and focus group methods were adopted to design the questionnaire survey content. In addition, first-year students from the college of electrical engineering & computer science of a university of technology underwent questionnaire surveys before and after 2 years. There were 195 effective questionnaire copies, accounting for the effective recovery rate of 60.9%. Targeting the survey results, paired sample t-test analysis was carried out. The study found that the post-test scores of students after 2 years were lower than those of the first grade, especially in terms of general core abilities, and each ability had significant differences. It is recommended that the teaching objectives and course content be consistent with the core competencies. The curriculum content should also be designed for the core competencies, using situational education, problem-based learning, and integrated teaching methods and integrated teaching methods, so that students can understand the learning goals and the focus of teaching is to promote students to improve their core competencies.
