- SKKU in THE’s Top 25 Universities over 400 Years Old
- To mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death, Times Higher Education recently ranked the top 25 universities over 400 to determine the best ancient institutions. Sungkyunkwan University has been ranked 19th, becoming the only Korean institution included in the ranking. Data and Analytics Director at THE, Duncan Ross, said that the list shows, “The origin of our modern university systems as they move away from the religious training institutions they were, into something that was starting to become more recognizable.” “Despite all the evidence that points to Shakespeare being from the English Midlands, the conspiracy theories regarding who he might have been or where he may have been from refuse to die away. So, we thought it would be fun to look at the universities that a more educated Shakespeare might have attended,” said Director Ross. Meanwhile, SKKU has ranked 16th in Asia (2015 Times Higher Education) claiming the first place of all comprehensive private universities in Korea for the second consecutive year. The results of the ranking are calculated based on scores from thirteen indexes including university-industry collaboration, education, research paper citations, research capability, internationalization, etc. University College

- University College - AI Generation Liberal Arts Freshmen, Come and Play with SW!
- “First of all, we need to figure out why we need software, and today we will learn to understand how the software works. Let’s play with software!” Computer Thinking and Software Coding’s first class was opened on the 17th of March in Sungkyunkwan University Hoamgwan’s multimedia studio, with 20 students who were ready to learn. They were all liberal arts students but they didn’t hesitate to study SW. Instead, they regarded coding SW as mandatory. After AlphaGo, the Artificial Intelligence (AI), won against Se Dol Lee the ninth grader in Go, it motivated the students to study. Dong Un Kim (19, Freshmen in Global Economics) said, “After the match between AlphaGo and Se Dol Lee, I realized that we could use AI to solve problems in various fields and if I think I need better software skills after completing this class, I will consider taking the advanced SW course as an interdisciplinary program.” At Sungkyunkwan University, from this year all students have to take SW courses. Students studying Humanities and Social Sciences have to complete 4 credits in order to graduate. 16 SW-related courses are offered this semester for non-major students and 2,517 students are enrolled. There are 34 SW tutors who are in their third or fourth year of their undergraduate studies and completed the tutor-training program. They are helping students in the class as teaching assistants. The reason why Sungkyunkwan University has applied SW as a mandatory course is to foster integrated talent and improve students’ thinking abilities. “The goal of SW education is not to foster developers but to build thinking ability. The process of analyzing problems and solving them by making algorithms with computing principles will help the students cultivate logical and analytical thinking skills,” said Dr. Jae Hyoun Kim, professor of Computer Education. Moreover, the Professor mentioned, “I hope the students don’t get stressed out by the mandatory course and find a way to utilize SW knowledge in their individual fields of study.” University College
