Professor Jang, Seong-ho 1st in the medical sector / Professor Park, Han-woo 2nd in the humanities and sociology sector [October 9, 2012] Professor Jang, Seong-ho (left) who won the King of Theses for the medical sector and Professor Park, Han-woo who won second place in the humanities and sociology sector in the 2012 Joongang-ilbo University Evaluations Professor Jang, Seong-ho (49) of the YU Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, won the 'King of Theses' award in the medical sector for the individual international theses performance evaluation of nation's professors. In an article on the 9th, Joongang-ilbo announced the results of evaluating the number of international theses published by individual professors for the first time this year in its 2012 University Evaluations. According to this, Professor Jang published 50 SCI-level theses last year, thus winning first place in the medical field. Professor Jang, who is a globally recognized scholar in the brain rehabilitation sector, said, "Research on brain motor system rehabilitation began worldwide in the 1990s, but it is still in its infancy," adding, "There are limitless potentials if students of science concentrate on researching this field." The YU's support is contributing greatly in Professor Jang's research. Director of the YU Office of Funded Research Jung, Jae-hak stated, "YU provides full support such as giving two research assistants every semester to professors with excellent research performance." During its evaluation of theses, Joongang-ilbo used 51,154 of 86,055 theses published in academic journals of the 'upper 60%' (OrnIF score of 2 or higher) among SCI-level international academic journals in 2011. The scores were calculated by multiplying the level of contribution in the paper by the individual professor and the influence index of each journal. Meanwhile, Professor Park, Han-woo (41) of the YU Department of Media and Communication was placed second in the humanities and sociology sector. Professor Park who is a famous expert on 'webometrics', which refers to the quantitative analysis of the web, published 12 SCI-level theses last years. This is about 7.5 times more than the average number of international theses (1.6) per professor of the 102 universities that were evaluated. Professor Park is achieving great results in research based on social network analysis via website contents and hyperlinks.

YU ranks 19th in internationalization sector, as its diversification of international exchange stands out [October 9, 2012] YU (president Lee, Hyo-soo) was ranked 1st place for 3rd straight year among private universities outside of the Seoul area after topping the list in 2010 and 2011 during the 2012 Joongang-ilbo University Evaluations. The results were from summing up the scores in 4 sectors (300 points total) such as professor research (100 points), educational conditions (90 points), reputation and society advances (60 points), and internationalization (50 points) of 102 4-year universities (100 universities in previous year) across the nation. In the internationalization sector, YU was ranked 19th in the nation together with POSTECH. In 2010, it was ranked 27th, 22nd in 2011, and finally in the top 20 this year. This is a feat that is very difficult for a university located in a region outside of the Seoul area. This is the result of YU giving special attention and sparing no efforts for internationalization. The level of internationalization of YU grew considerably in the past 3 years. The number of overseas sister universities grew rapidly from 120 in 2009 to 220 as of September 2012. The number of international students studying in YU grew from 1,030 students from 18 countries to 1,212 students from 46 countries. The number of YU students being sent off to foreign schools grew as well. It was less than 700 in 2009, but after just 3 years, it exceeded 1,280. In September alone, 231 YU students were dispatched to 14 countries around the world where they will grow as global citizens. International exchange improved not only in quantity, but in diversity as well. For example, the 'YU-EU Center' that opened in March of last year with the support of the EU headquarters, as well as 'American Center' and 'China Research Center' act as windows for diverse international exchange. Recently, it became the first Korean university to install the 'Arab Cultural Center' within campus. In March of last year, it signed an exchange agreement with the Saudi Arabia Cultural Mission, and last month, it was selected by the National International Exchange Center for universities operating perliminary courses for Saudi Arabia's 'King Abdulla Scholarships' program. As of September 2012, there are a total of 12 international students from the Arab region made up of 11 Saudi Arabian students and one student from Tunisia. Including these students, there are a total of 95 Muslim students studying at YU. Fahad Faisal Ahmadi (23), a freshmen at the YU School of Mechanical Engineering, stated, "I am really thankful of YU for paying special attention to us," and added, "I hope it becomes a campus in which various religions and cultures coexist with mutual respect." Furthermore, YU became the first Korean university that made alumni associations among international students once they returned to their home countries after graduation, and is thus creating a new Hallyu. For example, in January, Vietnamese students who graduated from YU established the YU Vietnam Alumni Association in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and in May, Chinese graduates launched the YU China Alumni Association for the first time among Korean universities in Beijing, China. The YU Alumni Association is also scheduled to be created in Indonesia in the near future, so different ways of globalization are gaining attention. In result, the 'Global Campus 7-4-3' strategy pursued by YU is also expected to gain strength. YU is currently looking at 70 countries around the world, in which 4,000 students will be sent every year, while hosting 3,000 international students for both in-bound and out-bound globalization.

She is in 3rd semester of Master's Degree in English Language and Literature, Selected as the Fulbright Grantee of the US. She will receive US government grants of 40,000 USD per year, and she will study in the US without paying anything. [September 27, 2012] A YU graduate school student was selected as a 'Fulbright Grantee', a very rare and coveted grant. Hwang, Young (23, 3rd semester of Master's Degree program), who is currently enrolled in the Graduate School of English Language and Literature and first entered the school in 2007, won the Fulbright Grant. She was recently selected for the US government scholarship program, which is world renowned, and will be studying in the US on a full grant. The Fulbright Grant program is the top scholarship program for Korean university students that is funded by the US Department of State and operated by the Korean-American Educational Commission. It offers round-trip airfare, as well as tuition, lodging expenses, allowances and insurance for 2 years, so it also has the highest competition. It is also famous for its strict screening criteria. It requires an official English proficiency test grade (TOFEL IBT 100 or IELTS 7 or higher), GPA (75% or higher out of 100%), essay or thesis related to major, three separate letters of recommendations that can verify the student's academic excellence, cover letter, a detailed study plan, etc. After checking the applications for about two months, those who are chosen preliminarily have to face an interview in English with ten different interviewers. It is especially difficult for students not in the Seoul area, and so most of the Fulbright Grantees selected during the past decade are from 'SKY' (Seoul National, Korea, and Yonsei) Universities. Only one student attending university not in the Seoul area was chosen for the grant. Despite these difficulties, Hwang, Young boldly listed her name on the list of grantees. She said, "It was possible because of the systematic instructions and full-hearted support of not only my advising professor, but all my professors." She added, "If you have a dream and continue to prepare for it, the opportunity will come and you will be able to seize that opportunity." In fact, while most graduate school students begin to prepare for their thesis in their 3rd or 4th semester, she began preparing for her thesis upon being admitted to the graduate school program and has also published a thesis as a co-author with her advising professor in the academic journal, 'The Phonology Morphology Circle of Korea'. Thus, she was a step ahead compared to other students in terms of research and this played a decisive role in her being selected as a Fulbright Grantee. Professor Shin, Seung-hoon (45, Department of English Language and Literature) who advised Hwang on her paper, said proudly, "I am very happy that such good results came to my student who showed no fear in taking on difficult assignments and worked hard to learn. Thanks to her I'm really happy these days." She is currently majoring in English at the YU graduate school and she says her dream is to teach 'English for communication'. She says she plans to earn her doctorates majoring in English phonology and morphology in the US and return to Korea and join in on English education in Korea. She said, "I am happy that I can concentrate on studying since I will not have to worry about money because the US government grant guarantees an annual 40,000 USD for 2 years." She added, "I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my professors who helped me grow so much when I only started with a vague interest in English, as well as the 'Yeungnam American Center' (director - Professor Lee, Hae-young, Department of Public Administration) who provided full administrative support from my application to my selection for this scholarship program. If this was possible for a person as imperfect as I am, then it will be possible for any other student as well. If there is something you want to do, I hope you take on the challenge and seize your opportunity."

YU embodies 'Glocal Initiative' where various religions and cultures coexist. The center is Selected as university that offers preliminary courses for the Saudi 'King Abdullah Scholarships' [September 18, 2012] The nation's first Arab Cultural Center was opened at YU on the 18th. (fourth from left is director of the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission, Alayyar). YU (president Lee, Hyo-soo) installed the nation's first 'Arab Cultural Center'. On the afternoon of the 18th, the Arab Cultural Center was opened on B1 of the YU International Center to accelerate change of campus where various religions and cultures coexist. For the first time for a university in the region, YU signed an exchange agreement with the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission (director Turki Fahad Alayyar) in March of last year to establish a bridgehead to enter the Middle Eastern region. In August, an MOU was signed for technical and vocational training with the Saudi Arabian Technical and Vocational Training Corporation, in its efforts to secure more active exchange with the Arab region. In result, the current number of Arabian students enrolled in YU is 12, with 11 being from Saudi Arabia and one from Tunisia. This is the most among local universities. They attended this event and happily welcomed the opening of the center. Fahad Faisal Al Ahmadi (23, freshman in School of Mechanical Engineering) from Saudi Arabia said, "I am really thankful to the university who payed such special attention to us." He added, "I hope that various cultural events will be held that can remove the erroneous preconceptions of the Arab world and to enjoy the Arabian history and culture." YU President Lee, Hyo-soo also stated in a speech, "There are over 1,300 international students from 42 different countries studying at YU, so YU is true 'Glocal Initiative' where various languages, cultures and religions coexist at the campus." He added, "I hope that the Arab Cultural Center will be one of the mainstays of the 'Glocal Initiative'." A special guest was present at the event as well. Director of the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission, Turki Fahad Alayyar, who is in charge of the non-government exchange between Korea and Saudi Arabia also visited to congratulate the opening of this center. At this event, he stated, "I have never seen such a beautiful campus like YU's that gives such as comfortable feeling anywhere in the world," and added, "Since the Arab Cultural Center will first open in Korea at YU, I hope that exchange with Saudi Arabia will become more active using YU as a base." In early September, the National International Exchange Center selected YU and Kyunghee University for universities operating preliminary courses for the King Abdullah Scholarships. Only YU and Kyunghee University will be able to accept King Abdullah Scholarship students. 'King Abdullah Scholarships' are students who receive national funding according to the Saudi Arabia government's development plans of human resources. There are currently about 100,000 students studying in undergraduate and graduate schools in the world's top 200 universities listed in the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission's website. Since signing the educational exchange agreement between the Korean and Saudi Arabian government in March, 2007, about 140 students were sent to Korea, of which most studied in the Seoul area. However, with YU being selected as a university that offers preliminary courses for King Abdullah Scholarships, it is expected that the number of Arabian students will grow in this area as well. Meanwhile, starting in 2003 with an Egyptian student enrolling at the Graduate School of Mechanical Engineering, a total of 95 Muslim students are enrolled as of September 2012. In 2009, YU installed a separate space for prayer within the campus in order to focus on globalization while respecting religious diversity and cultural diversity. In addition, by attracting 'American Center', 'China Research Center', and 'YU-EU Center' supported by EU before installing 'Arab Cultural Center'. YU embodies 'Glocal Initiative' including Anglo-American World, the Arab world and Chinese world.

First Korean University participated in the international event hosted by the French government. School of Architecture Signed exchange and cooperation MOU with the EAPV, a world top 5 college in the architecture field. The Exchange including up to 3 annual exchange students will become fully fledged. [September 4, 2012] The YU School of Architecture (Dean Kang, Joo-Won), which is celebrating its 60th anniversary, entered Paris, the home of the world famous architect, ‘Alexandre Gustave Eiffel‘ (1832~1923). Recently, the YU School of Architecture signed an MOU with France's EAPV (Ecole d' Architecture de Paris la Villette EVPA) promising exchange and cooperation. EAPV is a prestigious ranking in the top 5 of the architecture field together with the US Harvard Graduate School of Architecture and the Cooper Union School of Architecture, British AA School, and German RWTH Aachen University of Technology's Department of Architecture. With this MOU, the two universities will exchange up to 3 students in their fourth to fifth year majoring in architecture for the next five years to offer the opportunity for global education, as well as an exchange student program that accepts each other's academic credits in order to strengthen their global partnership. Prior to this, the YU School of Architecture became the first Korean university to participate in the 'Grand Paris International Workshop' hosted by the French government. This international workshop is in its second year since first starting in 2010 as the AIGP (l'Atelier International du Grand Paris) for 'Le Grand Paris', a redevelopment project of Paris by former President Nicolas Sarkozy. The YU School of Architecture, which received funding from the Educational Capacity Strengthening Project, co-hosted with the EAPV an international workshop based on coming up with an advanced, future city on the outskirts of Paris at Palais de Tokyo from July 19 - 27. YU School of Architecture Professor Baek, Seung-Man also participated as joint tutors in this international workshop together with Professors Jean Magerand and Claire Bailly. 10 YU School of Architecture students and 18 students from French universities such as EAPV, national architecture universities in Versailles and Strasbourg, ENSCI-Paris, ESAG-Paris, and EIVP also participated in this event. The YU School of Architecture's first step in Paris is evaluated to be very successful. Bertrand Lemoine, the director of AIGP said that the results were very promising and said, "I hope the partnership between the YU School of Architecture and EAPV becomes stronger and that many great collaborative works result from this partnership." Results of the workshop will be published in a book issued by AIGP and they will be put on display at the Science Hall of la Villette, together with international seminars, from this coming December until October of next year.
