Abstract

This study explored the educational values held by first-year marine engineering students at John B. Lacson Colleges Foundation during the 2002-2003 academic year. Researchers surveyed 298 students using a 24-item "Educational Values Inventory."  Analysis revealed interesting trends: students most valued aesthetics ("appreciating beauty") and leadership ("organizing people"), while valuing art and philosophical/religious courses the least. Socially, they prioritized understanding social problems, while vocational values focused on preparing for their chosen profession. Interestingly, the least valued aspects were understanding scientific theories and specific vocational courses. These findings offer valuable insights into the educational priorities of marine engineering students, potentially informing curriculum development and student support services.
