Notably, the seminar will feature the announcement of policy research results conducted mainly by Suncheon National University and Mokpo National University, drawing attention as it is the first time that the status and issues related to national-centered and public university graduate schools have been surveyed and presented.

Ko Young-jin, president of Suncheon National University, stated, "Through this policy seminar, I hope that networking and policy development among national-centered and public university graduate schools will become regularized."
