Dongmyung University Industry-Academia Convergence Lecture.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, trainee reporter Hwang Du-yeol] The 'Industry-Academia Convergence Course,' where practical work is education itself, was held at Dongmyung University.

The Industry-Academia Convergence Course is the flagship industry-academia education program of the Dongmyung University LINC+ Project Group.

The Industry-Academia Education Center of the Dongmyung University LINC+ Project Group conducts 15-week major courses, with the professor in charge lecturing for 9 to 10 weeks and industry experts such as industry professors lecturing for 3 to 4 weeks.

Overcoming the COVID-19 crisis in 2020 by expanding support for online classes, the program was implemented in 201 courses in 2021, up from 60 courses.

A total of 241 industry professors, including Lee Bong-du, CEO of Wooil Technology Group, participated and prepared countermeasures through the 'Industry-Academia Cooperation Curriculum Development Committee' and others.

Current students cited overcoming the monotony of existing classes or practical communication with industry experts as strengths of the Industry-Academia Convergence Course.

Shin Dong-seok, head of the LINC+ Project Group, said, “Through interactive industry-academia education, we plan to actively support education for nurturing talent for the Fourth Industrial Revolution era by providing an educational environment identical to the industrial field.”
