The Dongseo University-Dong-A University Glocal University Consortium announced on July 24 that the Glocal University Field Campus, which is nurturing talent in cooperation with local industries in Busan, the city of film, is attracting attention.
At 11:00 a.m. on July 24, an on-site evaluation of the Field Campus, which is being operated as part of the Glocal University 3.0 Project, was conducted at the Busan International Film Festival.
This evaluation was organized to assess the effectiveness of field-based education in connection with local industries, and served as an opportunity to confirm the cooperative education model with Busan's representative industry, the film and video content sector.
The evaluation panel included Kim Jongsik, Director of the UFG Center at Dong-A University; Kim Jonggeon, Vice President for Academic Affairs at Dongseo University; Park Insun, Module Lead Professor at Dongseo University; and members of the Field Campus Council, including Kim Jiuk, CEO of Gippeunwoori Pictures, and Jin Myeongjun, CEO of Line Sound.
They conducted an in-depth review of the curriculum to be operated in collaboration with the Busan International Film Festival, the field training system, student participation and achievements, as well as the structure of cooperation with industry partners.
In particular, various opinions were exchanged regarding the effectiveness and sustainability of education conducted directly at industrial sites, and the potential for linkage with regional industrial development.
One official who participated in the evaluation stated, "It is a very meaningful attempt for universities to provide practical on-site education at the center of the film and video industry," adding, "Through close cooperation between industry and universities, this will become a model for joint growth of the region and the universities."
The strengths and areas for improvement identified through this evaluation will be actively reflected in the future operation of the Glocal University Field Campus and in the cultivation of talent tailored to local industries.
There are high expectations that the achievements of field-oriented education based on the Busan International Film Festival will spread as a best practice, leading the innovation of the regional industrial ecosystem and university education.
