- Our university uses state-of-the-art education infrastructure to respond to the new corona virus crisis.
- Our college leverages high-tech education infrastructure. Response to the new corona virus crisis - Hold off classes for one week and hold classes for one or two weeks. - Instructors choose between real-time streaming classes and pre-production methods. Our university said, "By introducing innovative teaching methods that utilize high-tech education infrastructure in a full scale, we can respond quickly to the new corona virus and overcome the crisis." Our university puts off the opening day for a week from 3.2 (month) to 3.9 (month), and the first or second week of the class is conducted by replacing it with online. And from the third week of the semester, 3.23 (Monday), the school will conduct offline lectures in the classroom. Our university offers online lectures for the first two weeks of the course, utilizing a platform (i-Campus*) that allows students to easily take classes anytime, anywhere. The online lecture will be conducted by the instructor in two major ways: real-time streaming class method and upload method through pre-video production. In case of real-time streaming, the instructor will use the WebEx program** pre-supplied by the school in the lab or in a separate space. * I-Campus : Platform for using online classes at Sungkyunkwan University ** Cisco WebEx Program: An integrated cloud-based, real-time lecture and conference communications app that is available anytime, anywhere on any device, such as PC or mobile. If a video clip of a lecture is produced in advance, SKKU self-study or a lecture room that can store the lecture will be used. In addition, the ministry plans to provide related video writing tools, webcams, tablets, and microphones to help teachers film classes comfortably in the space they want (such as research labs). Meanwhile, the Sungkyunkwan Language Institute, a Korean language institute, has already been conducting classes using 100 percent real-time streaming services since early February. The Sungkyunkwan Language Institute closed classes only in the first week (1.28-1.31) when the corona virus issue began to emerge, and immediately conducted online lectures from the following week to create an environment where students can study without a hitch. Shin Dong-ryul said, "We are dealing with online lectures so that students can attend classes safely and smoothly," adding, "Most of all, all school members are making all-out efforts to ensure the safety of their students."

- Signs agreement with Engineering Education Innovation Center and 3D Convergence Industry Association
- Signs agreement with Engineering Education Innovation Center and 3D Convergence Industry Association to foster 3D printing technology personnel and develop technology - Conducting a work agreement ceremony in the second room of Sungkyunkwan University's Natural Science Campus. The Center for Engineering Education Innovation (CEO Lee Joon-young) signed a business agreement with the 3D Convergence Industry Association (CEO Kang Seung-chul) on January 22 (Su) in the 2nd Meeting Room of the Natural Science Campus to train and develop 3D printing technical personnel. The ceremony was attended by Seo Jong-hwan, director of the center of the 3D printed hybrid center of this school, and Kang Seung-chul, chief of the 3D convergence industry association. The 3D Convergence Industry Association is striving to foster new technology industries and new growth engines for the next generation of 3D convergence industries such as information electronics, contents, SW and broadcasting services amid a new convergence industry paradigm that integrates with traditional industries as well as IT. After today's ceremony, officials toured Sungkyunkwan University's 3D printing hybrid center and the Running Factory together to exchange in-depth opinions on the current status of the main industry and the future direction of cooperation. Kang Seung-chul said, "The size of the printing market itself is still in the process of germinating to 400 billion won in Korea and 10 trillion won in the world, but because of its infinity in use, large domestic companies are also paying keen attention to research and development. However, we hope that the pool of technical professionals is small and that the 3D printing sector is an industrial sector that could lead to an explosive workforce demand in the future, so we hope to see a lot of interest from the best students." Lee Joon-young, head of the Center for Innovation in Engineering Education, said, "The 3D printing field is a convergence industry where various school systems meet and high value can be created. We ask the 3D Convergence Industry Association to provide on-site education to our universities as it is essential to train professionals involved in such fast-developing new industries through close cooperation with the industry association," he said. Seo Jong-hwan, head of the 3D printing hybrid center, said, "We will provide universities with many opportunities to experience the 3D printing convergence industry so that talented people can contribute to the growth of innovation in the 3D convergence industry as well as materials used for 3D printing, 3D printing image data optimization, medical printing, and standardization in the 3D printing industry." Through the agreement, the two organizations will carry out various cooperation activities that are deemed necessary for mutual development of the two organizations, including the development and operation of education programs to foster professionals in the 3D convergence industry, the enhancement of awareness of 3D convergence industry technologies and the holding of job descriptions to provide job information.

- Professor Dong-yeop, Lee, department of Chemical Engineering published paper in Collaboration with GC Green Cross
- Professor Dong-yeop, Lee, Department of Chemical Engineering published International Research Paper on Cell Culture Process Analysis in Collaboration with GC Green Cross Professor Lee Dong-yeop, a professor of chemical engineering and polymer engineering, has published a research paper analyzing the cell culture process using the digital virtual cell model in collaboration with GC Green Cross. 'In silico modeling' refers to a technology that uses virtual cells with the same genomic information as the actual cells to obtain or predict the same results as the actual experiment. This is the first time that this technology has been applied to animal cell culture processes for the production of pharmaceuticals in Korea. The researchers used digital virtual cells to analyze the cell's change with physical variables such as gas in the culture process. As a result, the cells were found to fight oxidative stress by increasing amino acid metabolism to maintain homeostasis. Professor Lee said, “We are conducting research on the implementation of“ Digital Twin ”technology that perfectly reproduces the cultivation process in digital by adding AI technology that can be learned based on this research.” Yoo Hyun-ah, director of the GC Green Cross Research Institute, said, “This digital-based research will be a foundation for improving cell understanding and improving the production process.” We will push forward the development of a global level process by applying this technology. ”
