On May 29, Pusan National University stated, "Along with the Internationalization Vision Proclamation Ceremony, we will be hosting a variety of global programs, including an academic forum, special lectures, and cultural exchange events." The purpose of these events is to strengthen the foundation for international joint research, focusing on convergence with future academic fields such as AI, big data, and precision medicine, and to establish a cooperative base for nurturing global talent.

The main event, the 'Pusan National University Internationalization Vision Proclamation Ceremony,' will be held at 4:30 p.m. on June 2 in the university headquarters' main conference room. The ceremony will be attended by a total of about 230 people, including researchers from prestigious U.S. universities such as Harvard University, MIT, and the University of Pennsylvania, as well as representatives from global companies such as Meta, Microsoft, and Google.

Choi Jaewon, President of Pusan National University, stated, "We will leap forward as a global innovative university with three main strategic pillars: AI·XR-based hybrid education, region-linked R&D, and strengthening social responsibility." He added, "This vision proclamation will be a turning point for Pusan National University to move forward together with the world."

On the same day, starting at 5:30 p.m., the 'International Academic Forum' will also be held.

The forum will consist of four sessions: generative AI, AI-based scientific research, big data in healthcare, and precision medicine for cancer, providing a focused look at the latest global research trends. On June 4, special lectures will be offered, giving students, researchers, medical professionals, and other participants a direct opportunity to experience global research capabilities.

With its 80th anniversary approaching next year, Pusan National University plans to accelerate the establishment of a 'Global Hub Campus' to expand beyond its regional base and into the world.
