　　近幾年來技專校院實施總量管制，各校自行調整機制，結果導致五專、二專及二技學生數驟減，但如何能再造過往五專的榮景，課程發展與設計的要點，目前無明確的探討。本研究的目的除了分析五專課程發展的理想與現況外，也探討五專課程發展目前面臨的問題與對策，繼而提出未來發展之建言。本研究除進行文獻資料分析外，採質性描述性研究設計方法，研究者以立意抽樣方式，選取對課程發展與設計有豐富的7位校長、1位副校長、2位教務長、13位科主任，進行共2場次焦點團體訪談與2次個別訪談，來進行資料收集，繼而分析結果。發現學者們認為，培養實用人才為五專課程發展的目標，課程設計與發展的理想為：理論與實務並重。研究也發現，目前五專課程發展面臨的問題包括有95課綱限制各校發展特色、業界與學界之間的斷層、學生素質參差不齊、民眾對高學歷的迷思等，學者們也提出多種應對策略。對於未來五專課程發展建議包括有：規劃特色課程、增加實作課程、學界與業界合作授課、課程設計彈性化。總之，本研究結果可做為五專發展特色及課程之指引，也可作為國家修訂課程綱要之參考。
