Kyungbok University Holds 'Vision Week' Event Instead of Freshman Entrance Ceremony

[Asia Economy (Namyangju) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Kyungbok University will hold a Vision Week event from the 2nd to the 4th at the Namyangju Campus for the 2022 academic year freshmen to achieve their grand dreams through smooth university life and proactive learning activities.

This year's event will be divided into admission events and programs for adapting to university life at the department level.

The main programs include ▲ Introduction to the department's specialization and vision ▲ Guidance on student-selected integrated curriculum ▲ Grade evaluation and Champion graduation certification system ▲ How to use e-learning ▲ On-campus and off-campus scholarship information ▲ Career roadmap guidance by department ▲ Introduction to the world of Kyungbok spirit ▲ Campus tour, etc.

This event is planned as a program where students can actively participate by aligning with students through department-level admission events, breaking away from the traditional admission ceremony framework, and providing guidance on the department's vision and curriculum.

The event will be operated in strict compliance with infectious disease prevention guidelines due to COVID-19.

Sung Ki-hyuk, Director of Student Success at Kyungbok University, said, "We have organized the program centered on students in an easy-to-understand way for freshmen who have questions about school life," and emphasized, "We will continuously prepare various programs where professors and students can communicate with each other so that freshmen can quickly adapt to university life."

Meanwhile, Kyungbok University ranked first in integrated employment rate among metropolitan area universities (with over 2,000 graduates) for five consecutive years from 2017 to 2021, according to the Ministry of Education. It also ranked first nationwide in employment rate among universities with over 2,000 graduates in 2020 and 2021. Additionally, Kyungbok University was selected as a 'General Financial Support University' in the 2021 Ministry of Education Basic Competency Diagnosis Evaluation, certifying it as a university with excellent educational capabilities. In particular, with the extension opening of Seoul Subway Line 4 on March 19, public transportation access for students is expected to improve dramatically.
