2015-11-19


On the morning of November 19th, the completion ceremony for the Woncheon Information Center was held at Ajou University.
The ceremony was attended by Ajou's President Dong Yeon Kim, Chairman Jeong Shik Kim of the Haedong Science and Culture Foundation, and officials from the University.
The Woncheon Information Center is located behind Woncheon Hall at the previous site of Ajou's club rooms. The three-story building has a total floor space of about 901 square meters, a restaurant will be placed on the ground floor, and the information chamber and seminar rooms will be installed on the second and third floor, respectively. The information chamber was built with the 500 million won that was donated last year by the Haedong Science and Culture Foundation to build a library dedicated for natural sciences and engineering majors. The space was named the "Haedong Academic Information Chamber" in honor of the donor, and a signboard-hanging ceremony was held after the building was dedicated.
At the opening ceremony, President Kim said, "I expect that the Woncheon Information Center will be a place where students enjoy both studying and cultural activities. I would like to thank Chairman Jeong Shik Kim for his precious contribution to this building."
Chairman Kim stated, "I have been running the Haedong Science and Culture Foundation in order to contribute to the development of science and engineering fields in this country. I hope that Ajou's Academic Information Chamber will serve in fostering excellent talents in sciences and engineering."
