The purpose of this study was to research the agreement level of professors in agricultural universities with the range of agricultural departments established in agricultural schools, and based on this, to provide the fundamental resource to develop a systematic agricultural workforce development program in regular professional institutions for agricultural education and to set up the same range of department between agriculture high school and universities. For this, the current state of the agricultural department was researched through home pages of the agricultural high schools and universities, and the surveys on classification of agricultural department to the professors in the selected 9 agricultural universities by purposive sampling were conducted. The results of the study were as following. First, compared with Kim (2003), the number of departments in agricultural high schools in 2009 has decreased by 27 departments from 251 to 224, but increased by 39 departments from 279 to 318 in agricultural universities. Except the departments which were duplicated in more than 2 high schools or universities, the number of departments in agricultural highschool has increased by 38 departments from 73 to 111 and the number of departments in agricultural university has increased by 27 departments from 173 to 200. Second, among the 9 standard departments affiliated agriculture and life industry stated in high school curriculum, the standard departments in agricultural high school 100% agreed by the professors in agricultural universities based on the academic relations were only 3 include landscaping(1 department), agricultural product distribution information(2 departments), and environmental and tourist agriculture(1 department), and there was no 100% agreement by the professors in agricultural universities for other 6 standard departments. the standard departments in agricultural university 100% agreed by the professors in agricultural universities were 7 include animal resource(3 departments), food processing(6 departments), agricultural machine(2 departments), agricultural engineering(1 department), landscaping(4 departments), agricultural product distribution information(3 departments), and biological engineering(4 departments). But, there was no 100% agreement for plant resource and environmental and tourist agriculture. Third, the examples which had a big gap of the level of agreement by where the same or similar department which were established in the standard departments were found, although they might be easily separated because the name of the department was clear enough for them to be sorted in the related standard department. Based on these results, the followings were suggested in this study. First, the periodic research on the current state of agriculture high schools and universities is needed to be conducted. Second, a Delphi-analytic approach on classification of the agricultural departments to the subject expert group. Third, to foster preliminary agricultural workforce, the study on analyzing and comparing between the students who entered the departments of agriculture highschool closely related to the standard department affiliated agriculture and life industry in curriculum and those who did not is also necessary. Fourth, based on the characteristics of agriculture which has been developed as a multi-academic and integrated industry, the recognition of professors in agricultural universities on the range of departments is needed to be enhanced.
