description: DIA-M har ønsket at bestemme profilen på fremtidige kandidater, idet man vil søge at skabe en kandidatprofil, der kan fremtidssikre DIA-M''s omdømme som et godt uddannelsessted.
        
        En række faktorer uden for DIA-M''s kontrol - mindre studenterårgange, forhøjede adgangskvotienter, færre bevillinger pr. studerende, nye krav og forventninger fra aftagerside m.m. - nødvendiggør prioriteringer og principvalg i forbindelse med studieplaner, faglig/pædagogisk udvikling og ressourcedisponeringer.
        
        For at have det bedst mulige beslutningsgrundlag har DIA-M blandt andet besluttet at iværksætte en spørgeskemaundersøgelse blandt de yngre kandidater. Spørgeskemaundersøgelsen har følgende formål:
      
        - at identificere både stærke og svage sider i den nuværende
        
        uddannelse;
        
        - at tilvejebringe grundlag for en vurdering af, hvad de kommende
        
        faglige og andre behov bliver i en række forskellige
        
        sammenhænge;
        
        - at få en foreløbig tilkendegivelse af muligheder og interesse
        
        for at arrangere en videreuddannelse/efteruddannelse for
        
        kandidater. Interessen herfor er en ny metode til faglig
        
        fornyelse;
        
        - at få klarlagt, om der er interesse for en kandidatforening og
        
        i givet fald - formen herfor;
        
        - at få ajourført den store kandidatundersøgelse fra 1981
        
        (DDA-0651).
      Svarene vil også blive benyttet af afdelingens repræsentanter i DIA''s igangværende strategiprojekt, som er iværksat af DIA''s konsistorium. Det er dog først og fremmest til DIA-M''s egne strategiovervejelser og til studienævnets arbejde med udvikling af ny studieplan, at man søger at vurdere fremtidige behov
description: The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Engineering Academy of Denmark wished to have the profile of future graduates determined in order to be able to create a graduate profile which may ensure the future reputation of the Department of Mechanical Engineering as a good institute of education.     #  A number of factors on which the Department of Mechanical Engineering has no influence (fewer students, higher exam quotient as a prerequisite for right of admission, smaller grants per student and new requirements and expectations on the part of those who employ the graduates, etc.) have made it necessary to put the various tasks in order of priority and to make decisions in principle in connection with syllabuses, technical/pedagogical development and use of resources.     #  In order to obtain the best possible basis for decision-making the Department of Mechanical Engineering decided, among other things, to carry out a questionnaire survey among the young graduates. The purposes of this survey are:     #     #- to identify strong as well as weak points of the present     #  education;     #- to obtain a basis for an assessment of future technical     #  and other needs in various connections;     #- to obtain a preliminary indication of possibilities of     #  and interest in arranging in-service training courses and     #  refresher courses for the graduates. This interest is a     #  new method of professional innovation;     #- to map out whether the graduates are interested in a     #  graduate association and, if so, which form this association     #  should have;     #- to update the survey of engineering graduates from 1981     #  (DDA-0651).     #     #The answers were also used by the department representatives in connection with a strategy project at the Engineering Academy of Denmark, a project which had been initiated by the supreme governing body of the Academy. However, the assessment of future needs was primarily meant to form the basis of the strategy considerations of the Department and of the work of the staff-student committee concerning the preparation of a new syllabus
