Investigation of Effect on Application Rate by the Name of Department in the Field od Electrical Engineering

This paper deals with the effect of the name of department in the field of electrical engineering on the application rate. First, the authors investigated the application rate of the entrance examination in 2021 from the homepage of each National Institute of Technology (KOSEN), and classified them by field. From the classification by field, it was confirmed that the application rate in the field of electric engineering was not low, and the results of conducting a survey of the application rate when the department name was narrowed down to “Department of Electrical Engineering” demonstrate that the application rate in “Department of Electrical Engineering” was nationally low. Finally, the authors investigated the influence of the departments of control engineering and information engineering on the application rate in the field of electrical engineering
