Through this agreement, Dankook University and the partner institutions, forming a cooperative system to contribute to the advancement of the nuclear energy industry, resolved to cooperate and execute joint performance to ▲ conduct joint research for technical developments ▲ facilitate interactive exchange of information ▲ exchange human resources and information on employment.
Notably, Dankook University and KAERI organized a ‘Steering Committee of Master’s and Doctorate Programs for Institute-University cooperative research’, to make a contribution to the development of the nuclear energy industry and cultivation of professional manpower, by promoting connected activities in utilizing human resources, equipment, facilities and experimental materials that are required in research of nuclear related fields.
Meanwhile, Dankook is working on specialization in energy related academic fields, and recently established major courses related with energy and nuclear energy.
Dankook opened the ‘Department of Energy Engineering’ in 2010, and the ‘Department of Atomic Energy Convergence Engineering’ this year which is expected to recruit new students from 2015.
Through this agreement, Dankook plans to improve its academic research ability in energy and nuclear energy related fields, and contribute to the cultivation of professional manpower.
