2015-11-17


Ajou's Department of Public Administration held an event to celebrate its 30th anniversary in the University Gymnasium on November 14th.


The event was attended by about 150 people including President Sang Yeop Lee (admitted class of 1986) of the Department Alumni Association, alumni, students, and professors. The presence of honorary professors Hwa Soo Lee, Kong Yul Kim, and Sook Jong Chung made the occasion even more significant. The ceremony began with a tree planting in celebration of the 30th anniversary, followed by the presentation of scholarships and congratulatory performances.


The Ajou Public Administration Scholarships, which was launched in 2012 and has been giving scholarships to the University students once a year on the Department of Public Administration Day, presented scholarships to 31 students from the Department on that day. The congratulatory performances featured plays by the student band and choir, and a saxophone performance by Professor Ho Seob Kim.


President Dong Yeon Kim said in his message for the publication of collected works in commemoration of the 30th anniversary, "I ask that the Department of Public Administration will serve as a pioneer in changing our society in positive, different, and significant ways."
