[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yeo Jong-gu] Yeongnam Institute of Technology conducted a two-day industrial site visit to 2022 STATS ChipPAC Korea from the 7th to the 8th, targeting a total of over 80 students and teachers from four specialized and Meister high schools in the Daegu and Gyeongbuk regions, including Daegu Science and Technology High School and Geumo Technical High School.

Organized by the University Job Plus Center, this visit was held four times in total, starting with the first visit in May, and was designed to enhance understanding of the industry through visits to advanced semiconductor industry sites and to increase interest in employment.

A total of about 400 people, including high school students who passed the regional youth recruitment at STATS ChipPAC Korea, their guiding teachers, and parents, participated in the visits up to this time.

Through this visit, high school students who passed the regional youth recruitment at STATS ChipPAC Korea directly visited the industrial sites of the companies they were accepted to, increasing their understanding of the companies and learning in advance about the prospects of the future semiconductor market.

Yeongnam Institute of Technology was selected as a support institution for the high school-level work-study dual training center in September last year, supporting students from nine industry-academia integrated apprenticeship schools in the Daegu and Gyeongbuk regions who have been employed by companies to settle and grow as core personnel of the companies.

Additionally, it has signed business agreements with excellent companies in the metropolitan area and local regions, taking the lead in nurturing customized talent for companies and creating jobs.

Park Man-gyo, head of the University Job Plus Center at Yeongnam Institute of Technology, said, “This industrial site visit will be a good opportunity for local high school students to experience the working environment in advance, which will help them adapt better after joining the company,” and added, “Our university will continue to do its best in its role to nurture excellent local professionals and ensure employment success.”
