Abstract

According to a survey by Job Korea (2017), it was found that the higher the job usefulness of the major and the higher the job contribution of the major, the more positive the job satisfaction was. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the determinants of job satisfaction for business administration majors, and to determine whether the job usefulness of business majors affects job satisfaction. It will be helpful to design curriculums of business administration in university, and and career guidance. As a result of the analysis, it was found that business administration majors had higher job usefulness compared to other majors. This suggests that the current business administration education provides the knowledge required in practice compared to other majors, and can be advantageous for employment. In addition, major job usefulness showed a significant positive relationship with job satisfaction, indicating that the higher the major job usefulness, the higher the job satisfaction. In particular, in the case of business graduates, overall satisfaction, reputation satisfaction, and welfare benefit satisfaction all increased as the usefulness of the major increased. These results are interpreted as the result of business majors being treated favorably and are more likely to get a better job or change job as their major job usefulness increases. The contribution of this study are as follows by reporting the results that business administration majors have higher job usefulness than other majors, and that job satisfaction increases with higher major job usefulness. First, practice-oriented education to increase the usefulness of major jobs in colleges can help increase job satisfaction, increase job prospects, and reduce job turnover. From the company's point of view, it will be helpful in assigning jobs according to the applicant's major at the time of recruitment by understanding the effect on the job satisfaction of the employees. Second, college students who wish to find a job after graduation will be helpful in selecting a major or subject with high job usefulness in choosing majors and taking courses. Finally, it is helpful in establishing policies to increase the direction of higher education and increase the youth employment rate.
