[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] Pukyong National University has been selected for the Ministry of Employment and Labor's 'Customized Employment Service for Enrolled Students' project.

This project provides customized employment services at each stage from admission to graduation to offer university students various work experience opportunities. In Busan, Pukyong National University and Dong-Eui University were selected.

The 12 universities nationwide, including Pukyong National University, selected for the project signed an agreement with the Ministry of Employment and Labor on the afternoon of the 23rd at Seoul National University of Science and Technology, agreeing to actively cooperate for smooth project operation and support for university students' employment.

Pukyong National University plans to support student employment by participating in the pilot project, which will receive about 700 million won in funding for one year starting in March, centered on the University Job Plus Center and utilizing AI-based job care systems.

For first- and second-year students, employment-related information and practical experience opportunities will be provided to help them find their aptitude and desired jobs through job exploration and work experience, and support will be given to design a job portfolio.

For third- and fourth-year students who are preparing for employment in earnest, professional counselors will provide one-on-one consultations to set specific employment goals and support the establishment of an Individualized Employment Activity Plan (IAP) tailored to those goals.

Students who complete vocational training, work experience programs, or self-directed employment competency enhancement programs according to this plan and faithfully carry out their employment activity plans can also receive support funds ranging from 50,000 to 250,000 won per month.

Pukyong National University plans to actively utilize the employment and start-up support infrastructure and know-how of the University Job Plus Center, which has been operating since 2018, to promote the project.
