Kyungbok University Earns Recognition for SQF-Based University Curriculum

Kyungbok University has obtained recognition for its university curriculum based on the Sectoral Qualifications Framework (SQF).

On November 24, Kyungbok University announced that the Department of Video Media Contents was recognized for its SQF-based university curriculum in the field of virtual convergence industries, specifically for the role of "Extended Reality Graphic Design." This recognition was awarded by the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the Human Resources Development Service of Korea at the "2025 SQF-Based University Curriculum Certificate Award Ceremony" held at the Seoul Garden Hotel on November 21.

The SQF is a system that structures the competencies required to perform standard occupational roles demanded in the industry, ensuring that education, training, degrees, qualifications, and work experience are organically linked. SQF recognition is an official government certification that the curriculum meets the occupational competency standards required by industry.

The newly recognized "Extended Reality Graphic Design" role refers to the specialized competency to perform XR graphic design work, based on foundational knowledge such as the principles of commercial game engines, 2D and 3D graphic techniques, understanding of visual and dynamic elements, and XR implementation technologies.

An Jia, Professor of the Department of Video Media Contents at Kyungbok University, stated, "This recognition of our SQF-based university curriculum is highly significant. As we have established a competitive educational system that can rapidly respond to the demands of the extended reality graphic design field, I hope our students will actively develop the practical skills required in the industry."
