Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the current status of the 3+1 curriculum implementation of nursing college in transition from a three-year to a four-year nursing education system.
Method: This study employs a triangulation study including a questionnaire survey and a focus group interview. The data collected from 34 nursing colleges were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 21.0 program and the interview data(9 department chairs of nursing colleges) were analyzed using qualitative content analysis.
Results: The important results are as follows; Many colleges applied academic performance as student selection standards. Factors in students`` satisfaction are acquiring the bachelor``s degree and a lot more relaxed college life. Factors in students`` dissatisfaction are anxiety about national nursing exam and absence of college``s own specialized programs. Main points of 3+1 course policy making are strengthening character education and core-fundamentals education in nursing. After qualitative contents analysis, three management-related subjects and 7 sub-subjects emerged. Three subjects were the effects of the 3+1 course running, the difficulties in management and how to run the 3+1 course effectively.
Conclusion: From the results of this study, we concluded with some practical implications for the 3+1 course running for reformed nursing schools.
