- Global leadership department produces the largest number of successful applicants in history at the single department level. The Faculty of Global Leaders (Director Moon Byung-geol) announced that it produced eight final successful applicants for the 2023 level 5 public recruitment administration exam.This is the largest number of people since the opening of the undergraduate school and the largest ever entry into public office at the level of a single department at our university, which is considered to have further expanded the foundation for talented people to actively contribute to the future administrative policy field. The Department of Global Leaders presented new students with public officials suitable for the times through classes on understanding global leadership, and later supported students to enter public offices through customized curriculum composition if they wanted to enter public offices through administrative exams.In addition, students' examination life was supported through systematic close support in the process of one-on-one interviews with the head of the faculty, mentoring projects with seniors and juniors, and essay writing and interviews. This process laid the foundation for fostering public officials who can contribute to society successfully beyond entering public office through discriminatory and specialized support, along with a clear understanding of public office for undergraduate students, and based on this, it produced a total of 28 successful applicants for the administrative exam in the past five years, making it the largest public office in the school. Moon Byung-gul, head of the Global Leadership Department, said, "This achievement goes beyond the quantitative growth of the undergraduate department and showed the opportunity for the undergraduate department to take it to the next level," adding, "This fruit is a combination of the school authorities' dedicated support, the affection of seniors who are already in public office, a systematic system including Yang Hyun-kwan, and above all, the efforts of individual students." The Faculty of Global Leaders will continue to help undergraduate students advance into various public sectors, including public offices, through systematic support and effective networking, and schools and undergraduate departments will provide support at any time.
