Abstract
There are two well-known evaluation methods of key competencies for engineering students. One is the GRIT test, which is a subjective evaluation, the other is the PROG competency test, which is an objective evaluation. In order to evaluate the relationship between a score on the GRIT scale and a score in each category of the PROG competency test, this paper analyzes the relationship between the two methods, and examines whether the GRIT scale is useful to evaluate key competencies. We conclude that the correlation coefficient between “tenacity” in the GRIT scores and the total score of the PROG competency test tends to be high.
