[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Miryang City in Gyeongnam announced on the 3rd that the Gyeongnam Career Education Center establishment project, which was promoted as a key project, passed the joint central investment review by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of the Interior and Safety after four attempts.

The education center will be located near Miryang Arirang Grand Park, with a total project cost of 46.54 billion KRW, on a site area of 16,240㎡. It will consist of an education building with one basement floor and four above-ground floors, and a dormitory with three above-ground floors. The total area will be 11,718㎡, and it is scheduled to open in June 2024.

Once the Gyeongnam Career Education Center, the largest modern career exploration and experience space in Gyeongnam, is established, local students will be able to make career choices centered on their talents and aptitudes through systematic experience-based programs, contributing to the development of local talent.

Additionally, with the opening of the Hamyang-Ulsan Expressway in the second half of 2024, more than 70% of students in the province will be able to arrive within an hour, improving accessibility to the western Gyeongnam region and greatly aiding the activation of exchanges between students from the east and west.

Mayor Park Il-ho expressed expectations, saying, "With the confirmation of the Gyeongnam Career Education Center project, Miryang has firmly established itself as a city of science, culture, tourism, and education," and added, "As many students, parents, and faculty members are expected to visit, it will also greatly contribute to the local economy."
