A Study on Curriculum, Educational Satisfaction and Job Efficacy of Chinese College Students Majoring in Cosmetology

The Chinese cosmetology industry has rapidly grown and this fast growth has increased demand for cosmetologists. However, cosmetology training programs designed to produce professional cosmetologists in China are still poor. This study examined current curriculums of cosmetology-related departments in Chinese colleges and explored development plans. For this, the study analyzed curriculums, educational satisfaction and job efficacy among college students majoring in cosmetology in China, and the results found the following: Overall course satisfaction was 4.14. Overall educational satisfaction and job efficacy were 4.19 and 4.24, respectively. Both course and educational satisfaction revealed a positive correlation with job efficacy with statistical significance. According to multiple regression analysis, as course and educational satisfaction increased, job efficacy was higher as well. To enhance job efficacy, therefore, it is necessary to offer courses that can satisfy students. It is anticipated that the study results would be available as basic data for linking cosmetology education between Korea and China by investigating the characteristics of the students from cosmetology-related departments in China.
