Through this agreement, the institutions agreed to mutually cooperate in ▲ business collaboration for mutual development and shared benefits ▲ joint operation of talent development education programs ▲ joint research in future technology fields. They plan to promote projects for mutual development and shared benefits, as well as establish an industry-academia cooperation system for talent cultivation by sharing various information and human resources.

Jang Je-guk, President of Dongseo University, stated, “Since our university’s establishment in 1992, we have always strived to help solve difficulties faced by local companies through diverse industry-academia cooperation. Through this agreement, we expect that conditions for the growth of advanced industries will be created through various forms of cooperation, and that projects conducted together with the university will lead to practical industry-academia collaboration, such as the growth of local companies and securing future competitiveness.”

Park Byeong-dae, Chairman of Yangsan Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said, “While managing manufacturing businesses, I have often thought about educating for technology transfer. Through my work at the Chamber of Commerce, visiting various companies and talking with their representatives, I realized that many of them share similar concerns, which made me wonder, ‘How can we solve this problem?’ During my extensive considerations, I met with the President of Dongseo University and learned about the specialized talent and infrastructure in broadcasting and video, as well as a specialized system called ‘Class Selling.’ This inspired the idea of creating video educational materials based on the technical documentation ‘Towel Engineering’ that Songwol had been preparing, which has now become the current industry-academia cooperation model.”
