Ajou University Software Education Center held the 3rd Junior Game Software Academy on September 24th and the 25th as part of the Software Specialized University Project carried out by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning.


Students from Suwon-based elementary schools participated and had fun during the program. Professor Gyu Hwan Oh (Department of Digital Media) helped the students develop a creative computing-related mindset through creating games.


Ajou University has organized various education programs as part of the Software Specialized University Project. In May and July, the first two sessions of the Junior Game Software Academy were held for students attending neighboring middle schools. The fourth session, scheduled for November, and the third one, held this month, are available to 4th-6th grade elementary school students.


The Online Software Academy for Citizens, which educates Suwon citizens on Big Data and the Internet of Things (IoT), was launched earlier this month. During the winter vacation, there will be additional sessions of the Youth Software Camp for elementary, middle, and high school students and the Software Academy for Teachers, etc.
