Silla University Selected for Teacher Training College Civic Education Capacity Building Project
Shilla University has been finally selected for the Teacher Training University Civic Education Capacity Building Project, which was announced by the Ministry of Education and the National Research Foundation of Korea.
In March, the Ministry of Education and the National Research Foundation of Korea called for applications for a project aimed at strengthening the civic education expertise and leadership capabilities of prospective teachers at teacher training universities, to cultivate future talents suited for the digital transformation and the global era.
