Pukyong National University draws attention by developing a diagnostic tool for developing 'core competencies' such as students' major and liberal arts knowledge as well as leading learning ability.

Pukyong National University's Division of Future Education Innovation (Director Kim Dong-joon) held the final briefing session on the development of the 'PKNU Diagnostic Tool for Core Competency' at the 2nd floor in the video seminar room of the Library.

Pukyong National University's Division of Future Education Innovation completed the development of diagnostic tools for core competencies that have been in progress since September last year, and announced to attendees such as Kim Young-seup, professors, and students.

Pukyong National University's core competency diagnosis tool is a specialized tool that measures six core competencies of students: △ induced learning △ integrative thinking △ proliferation linkage △ cooperative communication △ cultural inclusion and social practice.

Just like a test to diagnose 'what you know', This core competency diagnostic tool is a tool for diagnosing 'what you can do'. Only the existing university student's competency diagnosis test, such as K-CESA, to measure the leading learning ability has limited the realization of talented people in Pukyong National University.

Pukyong National University uses these diagnostic tools to directly diagnose students' core competencies, and provide students with various comparison and program programs to identify and reinforce the lack of diagnosis results.

Fort this, the university plans to build an integrated management system that incorporates this diagnostic tool, diagnoses students' individual competencies, and recommends customized comparisons and programs.

Kim Dong-joon, director of the Division of Future Education Innovation, said, “We expect students to recognize the lack of competency by using the diagnostic tool developed this time and expect it will be an opportunity to voluntarily develop students' own capacities.”

On the other hand, Pukyong National University has recently established a new talent image called 'Pukyong people' and is pursuing various projects to reinforce the six core competencies that can be implemented. <Pukyong Today>
