[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seunghyun Jeong] The Department of Marine Construction Engineering at Mokpo National Maritime University (Department Head Gyehee Lee, hereafter the Department) has achieved the remarkable feat of producing double-digit numbers of civil servant appointments for three consecutive years.

According to the university on the 30th, a total of 11 current students from the Department were appointed as civil servants this year (in Seongnam City, Gwangju City, Gangjin, Hampyeong, Yangpyeong, Haenam, Sinan, Wando (2 people), and Damyang County (2 people)), and three others were employed by public enterprises including one at Korea Land and Geospatial Informatix Corporation (LX), one at Korea Railroad Corporation, and one at the National Land Safety Management Institute.

Previously, the Department produced 12 civil servants and 8 public enterprise employees in 2019, and 11 civil servants and 4 public enterprise employees in 2020.

In particular, while enhancing the Department’s expertise through specialized education such as acquiring marine leisure certifications and drone piloting, it operates dual tracks for engineering certification and civil service exam preparation. This has allowed it to overcome the limitations of a regional university and become a strong specialized department in marine construction, focused on preparing students for civil service and public enterprise careers.
