Ajou University was certified by the Ministry of Education and the Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education and Training as an 'Institution for Educational Donation and Career Experiences.'


Launched earlier this year, the certification aims to establish a system to manage high-quality career experiences and induce the participation of various institutions in the project.


The University is operating diverse career experience programs: the 'Ajou Coaching Bus for Hope,' in which University officials visit areas with limited access to information and provide university-related information; the 'Explain Majors' and the 'Experience Majors' programs that support activities related to learning about and experiencing different majors; the Compass program that helps students explore suitable majors and careers; and the Creative Semester, etc.


Ajou will receive a letter of certification from the Minister of Education and will be permitted to use the certification mark, which is effective for three years. In addition, the University can post its certification, promote its main programs on the project website, and receive administrative support for developing and operating career experience programs.
