[Asia Economy Reporter Seulgina Cho] SK Broadband is significantly improving the communication environment on campus so that students at Jeonbuk National University can access fast and uninterrupted internet anytime and anywhere.


On the 1st, SK Broadband and Jeonbuk National University announced that they have signed an agreement to strengthen non-face-to-face education and improve the IT environment due to COVID-19.


Accordingly, SK Broadband plans to newly establish internet phone services and exchange facilities within Jeonbuk National University and expand wireless internet coverage. The communication facilities in dormitories will also be upgraded to corporate office standards, enhancing the on-campus IT infrastructure.


In particular, to improve the quality of non-face-to-face education, the Korea Education and Research Network (KREN) line will be upgraded. A large-capacity text message sending management function will also be provided to quickly deliver information to students in an untact environment.


Kim Dong-won, President of Jeonbuk National University, said, “This agreement is to lay the foundation for providing high-quality IT services to university members,” and added, “We will continue to promote smart informatization so that the university can proactively respond to the era of Data, Network, and Artificial Intelligence (AI).”
