On March 3, students and faculty members attended the opening ceremony of the Korea-China Joint Multimedia Major between Dongseo University and Shanghai University of Engineering Science. This year, 37 Chinese students will study digital media design, digital video design, video sound editing, 3D image design, and virtual reality at Dongseo University. Students in the major take courses in China for three years and in Korea for one year.
The joint program between Dongseo University and Shanghai University of Engineering Science has been evaluated as the most successful educational cooperation project between Korea and China for 15 years. So far, about 700 Chinese students have come to study at Dongseo University. The joint multimedia major began in September 2003 with 50 students.
The president of Dongseo University, Jekuk Chang said that the Korea-China collaboration has the longest history and is very valuable to both institutions. He also said that this year Dongseo University is ready to upgrade the program to a new level, and he promised to actively support the program.
President Chang added that if the students wanted to learn only about design techniques, they would not need to leave Shanghai; however, at Dongseo University they can experience a new culture, get new ideas, and meet various new professors and friends. He also said that he wants them to experience and learn many things in Dongseo University, just as with the Dongseo multimedia major students. “Dongseo students are also inspired by going out into the world,” he went on to say. “It is important that you see and experience a lot.”
“I will always do my best for you when you are studying at Dongseo University,” added Dongseo University Vice President Cho Jeoung Sung, who is also Dean of the Design College.
