Special lecture about cars with engineering and humanities
- The lecture ’Human and Car’ was created ... 6 professors from humanities and engineering do a joint lecture


A special lecture finding the relationship between humanities and engineers will start from this semester.

"Human and Car" which is worth 2 credits will be offered at Pukyong National University from this March.

This lecture has cars as a subject, as they have been important to humans, and will do research about the relationship between humanities and engineering through a fusion of both subjects.

In addition, this lecture will be taught by 6 professors from different departments such as the Korean Language and Literature Department, Design Department, Journalism and Broadcasting Department, History Department, Multibody System Dynamics Department, and the Computational Fluid Dynamics Department. 

Young-Hui Chae from the Korean Language and Literature Department, Myung-ho Shin from the History Department, Chang-Ho Oh from the Journalism and Broadcasting Department, Dong-Sik Hong from the Design Department, and Jeong-Hyun Sohn, and Yeon-Won Lee from the Mechanical Automotive Engineering Department will be in charge of the lectures.

The contents of the lectures will be interesting. △ When cars meet humanities?, △ How humanities translate technology?, △ Are cars a tool or a weapon?, △ How has the design of cars changed?, △What is the structure of cars?, △ How have car engines changed? All these subjects will be discussed in this class.
 
The professors also wrote a class textbook by themselves. "Car bares Humanities" published by GS intervision, is the title of the book.

The purpose of this class is to make creative students through the objectivity of engineering and the critical thinking of humanities.

"I can’t even imagine a life without cars. However, even though cars are just in the center of our lives, people don’t have much knowledge about cars. I hope this class will be a chance to offer broad knowledge through the fusion of humanities and engineering, and to broaden their insight," professor Young-Hui Chae said.<Pukyong today>
