This exhibition will feature over 460 faculty publications, graphical analyses of publication status, introductions to major works by college, books that have brought prestige to Pusan National University, and records of internal and external awards.


The Faculty Publications Exhibition has been held every 4 to 5 years since 2004 to gather and showcase the excellent research achievements and outputs of PNU faculty, promoting the university’s research capabilities and dedication to truth-seeking, academic pursuit, and education both internally and externally, while boosting motivation for research and education.


This year marks the 7th exhibition, featuring over 460 monographs written by PNU faculty from 2022 to 2023 and lists of outstanding books, presented through graphics and physical book displays. Notably, it departs from the previous format of showcasing achievements over 4 to 5 years and instead focuses intensively on the brilliant accomplishments of the recent two years.


The event is themed around "Light" and is divided into four sections: Prologue, Path of Light, Room of Light, and Achievements Painted with Light, exhibiting achievements from 2022 to 2023.


In the "Prologue: Publication Status" section, graphical data analyzed by annual publication numbers, publication ratios by subject, outstanding book status, and number of participating faculty members will be presented. The "Path of Light: Publication Lists by College" will introduce over 460 monographs, including Professor Kim Tae-woo (Department of Korean Language and Literature)’s study on the functional changes of (-ㅅ·ㅂ-), and Professor Kwak Cha-seop (Department of History)’s "History, Dreaming of La Prochaine".


Additionally, the "Room of Light: Internal and External Awards of PNU Faculty" will display awards received by faculty members over the past two years, and under the theme "Achievements Painted with Light: Books that Illuminate Pusan National University," 40 outstanding books by PNU professors selected by organizations such as the Korea Publication Industry Promotion Agency and the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Korea will be exhibited. These include Professor Ko Kwang-soo (Department of Business Administration)’s "Behavioral Finance," Professor Yoon Deok-young (Department of Bioenvironmental Energy Science)’s "Climate Change and Coastal Disaster Prevention," and Professor Woo Shin-gu (Department of Construction Convergence)’s "Urban Regeneration in Korea."


The exhibition will tour the three PNU campuses in Busan, Yangsan, and Miryang. The Busan campus exhibition will be held at the Central Library from November 7 to 20, the Yangsan campus at the Biomedical Science Library from November 22 to December 4, and the Miryang campus at the Nano Life Science Library from December 6 to 18.
