[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] The analog era is coming to an end even in university broadcasting stations.

Dongmyung University (President Jeong Hong-seop) is transforming its university newspaper and broadcasting station into a digital-based integrated newsroom system.

On the 30th, Dongmyung University announced that it has completed a 100% digital system transition, ending the analog era of university newspapers and broadcasting in response to the digital-first era of journalism.

Since August last year, Dongmyung University has signed an MOU with AMI Systems, a digital media specialized solution company, and has been building an integrated CMS and online platform TU Times.

The previously separately operated newspaper and broadcasting stations have been integrated and are now operated as a single newsroom system.

The newly established integrated CMS (Contents Management System) is a solution that systematically manages online and offline news content in an integrated manner, marking the first attempt at a domestic university.

Students can easily create, edit, and distribute articles anytime and anywhere via web and mobile, and can broadcast various text, voice, video, and multimedia news in real time worldwide.

With the completion of the digital system transition, the university held an appointment ceremony on March 29 in Room 107 of the main building for 29 newsroom members.

Among them, 12 members appointed as regular reporters of TU Times are students who have participated as trainee reporters during the six-month digital transition process.

Seventeen new members selected through a recent trainee recruitment competition were awarded trainee reporter appointment certificates.

President Jeong Hong-seop said, “This CMS-based digital transition is not only a future-oriented innovation but also greatly contributes to university financial management in terms of low cost and high efficiency. I hope our university’s newspaper and broadcasting station’s digital transition will positively contribute to digital innovation in domestic universities.”

Professor Lee Hwa-haeng, the weekly professor of the newspaper and broadcasting station (Department of Media Communication), explained that digital transition is not a choice but a necessity.

Professor Lee said, “Universities must innovate tailored to the MZ generation in all fields. Digital innovation is at the center of this, and since the future of newspapers and broadcasting lies in digital, we have promoted digital transition so that students can experience the media environment they will work in 10 years from now in advance.”
