Busan University of Foreign Studies has established a Global Cooperation Center in the United States to strengthen global exchange and cooperation.

Busan University of Foreign Studies announced on the 6th that during the eight-day summer study tour in the U.S. from July 23, which included President Jang Sun-heung and representatives of students and staff, it set up Global Cooperation Centers at two U.S. institutions. The centers were established at the Global America Business Institute and INNObjects.

The Global America Business Institute (GABI), located in Washington, the political center of the United States, is an institution where Professor No Myung-hwa, a special professor for global cooperation at Busan University of Foreign Studies, serves as the director.

The institute plans and operates international-level strategic consulting and training programs to enhance understanding of global competition across politics, economy, society, and culture, and to promote worldwide exchange and cooperation.

With the establishment of these Global Cooperation Centers, Busan University of Foreign Studies expects to expand its network with the United States, activate networks among prominent figures and alumni, operate overseas internship programs for students, and promote industry-academic cooperation with U.S. companies.

President Jang Sun-heung stated, “We plan to accelerate the expansion of Busan University of Foreign Studies’ cooperation network in the United States through this U.S. study tour,” adding, “We will carry out various international exchange programs, including expanding industry-academic cooperation and internship programs with U.S. companies, as well as employment and startup support programs.”
