[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] The freshman orientation event at Pukyong National University, the ‘2023 Freshman Culture Festival,’ was held at the university theater on the 20th for the first time in three years.
Organized by Pukyong National University and the Student Council, this event is being held over four days from the 20th, targeting about 3,000 freshmen of the 2023 academic year, divided by colleges.
Until 2019, Pukyong National University held in-person events annually for freshmen, including preparatory college students, but due to the spread of COVID-19, the event was conducted via online live streaming from 2020 to last year.
On the first day of this year’s event, freshmen from the College of Business Administration in the morning and the College of Environment and Marine Sciences in the afternoon participated.
The event included introductions to the school and academic system, information on campus life, introductions to college and department officials and student self-governing bodies, and club performances.
Pukyong National University will continue the event on the 21st for the College of Engineering, on the 22nd for the College of Natural Sciences and the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, and on the 23rd for the College of Information Convergence and the College of Fisheries Sciences.
Lee Dong-gyu, president of the Student Council, said, “We prepared this event with excitement as it is the first time in a long while to meet freshmen in person. We hope this event will provide a time for seniors, juniors, and classmates to unite and welcome a vibrant university life.”
