Expansion of SKKU WAVE (K-COIL) for the Bold Challenge of Global/Digital Collaborative Education
Our university has selected the SKKU WAVE (Sungkyunkwan University Worldwide Alliance for Virtual Exchange) program, which has been operated since the second semester of the 2023 academic year as the primary task of university education innovation, being the first in Korea to operate a global online collaborative class. It will continue to expand operations in the 2024 academic year.
The SKKU WAVE program successfully operated educational courses jointly with global universities in Australia, Singapore, the United States, Canada, and other countries during the second semester of the 2023 academic year, utilizing digital technology-based learning platforms and online communication solutions. It provided students with opportunities to study and collaborate with students from various countries and cultural backgrounds.
Sang-hoon Baek, Vice President of Academic Affairs and Director of the Digital Education Innovation Institute, stated, "WAVE (K-COIL) will provide Sungkyunkwan University with new opportunities to interact and collaborate with global students," adding, "Through online collaboration, students will strengthen their global competencies and help them grow into global citizens by forming networks with students from various countries and cultural backgrounds."
Especially in the 2024 academic year, successful overseas prestigious university courses operated by the main campus will be incorporated into WAVE global joint lectures, expanding opportunities for our university students to have diverse global learning experiences through online platforms.
