Received 420 Million KRW in Project Funding to Establish Facility Safety Database

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kang Woo-kwon] The Department of Civil Engineering at Gyeongnam National University recently announced on the 25th that it has been selected for the 'Facility Safety DB Construction Project' conducted by the Korea Infrastructure Safety Corporation.

The 'Facility Safety DB Construction Project' by the Korea Infrastructure Safety Corporation aims to build an inspection and diagnosis database for data-driven facility safety management. Departments related to civil engineering and architecture within universities participate to carry out assigned tasks while supporting the enhancement of students' practical skills related to their majors.

In particular, this project is a non-face-to-face digital job project, where civil engineering and architecture departments participate to build a database for the Integrated Facility Information System over approximately two months.

In this project, the Department of Civil Engineering at Gyeongnam National University has 105 students participating, including 103 current students and 2 graduates, and will receive a budget of 420 million KRW over about two months to build the facility safety DB. Each participant will receive a total of 3.6 million KRW during the project period.

Kim Jeong-jung, head of the Department of Civil Engineering at Gyeongnam National University, said, "We are pleased to be selected for the facility safety DB construction project for systematic data-driven facility safety management," adding, "We expect this project to increase students' interest in facility safety and greatly help strengthen their practical skills."
