47세의 ‘늦깎이 대학생’이 학점 4.47(만점 4.5)의 최고 성적으로 총장상을 받으며 졸업해 화제다.
부경대 미래융합대학은 배움의 기회를 놓친 사람들에게 대학 졸업의 길을 열어주기 위해 교육부 평생교육체계지원사업으로 2017년 동남권에서 처음 설립됐다. 회사원인 박 씨는 지난 4년 동안 직장과 가정, 학업을 병행하면서 올해 3,298명의 부경대 졸업생 중에서 성적 1위를 기록, 주위를 놀라게 하고 있다. 그는 야간과 주말, 온라인수업 등 성인학습자를 위한 부경대의 맞춤형 학사제도를 통해 향학열을 불태웠다. 세 자녀의 아버지이기도 한 그는 “퇴근해서 집이 아니라 공부하러 강의실로 가야했다. 함께 저녁시간을 보내지 못해 아내와 아이들에게 내내 미안했다.”며 그동안의 어려움을 토로했다. 그는 “회사 다니면서 전공분야에 대한 궁금증이 많았는데 인터넷이나 책으로는 잘 풀리지 않았다.”면서, “그런데 교수님들이 실을 꿰듯이 체계적으로 잘 설명해주셔서 지식에 대한 갈증을 풀 수 있었던 점이 좋았다.”고 말했다. 한편 이날 박 씨를 포함 20~60대 ‘늦깎이 대학생’ 53명이 4년간의 주경야독(晝耕夜讀)의 과정을 거쳐 부경대 미래융합대학의 첫 졸업의 영예를 안았다. <부경투데이> The graduate is Park Jin-woo (age 47, Beomseo-eup, Ulju-gun) of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Software Engineering at the College of Future Convergence, who received the President's award at the graduation ceremony of Pukyong National University (President Jang Young-soo) held on the 19th. Pukyong National University's Future Convergence College was first established in the Southeast region in 2017 as a lifelong education support project by the Ministry of Education to open the way to college graduation for those who have missed the opportunity to learn. Mr. Park, a company worker, has been working, taking care of family, and studying at the same time for the past four years, and has surprised many people by ranking top among 3,298 Pukyong National University graduates this year. He burned with the desire to learn through the customized academic system at Pukyong National University for adult learners such as evenings, weekends, and online classes. He, who is also the father of three children, talked about his difficulties, “I had to go to the lecture room to study, not home right after work from the workplace. I have been sorry all the time to my wife and children for not spending evenings together.” He said, “While working at a company, I had a lot of questions about my major, but the Internet or books alone did not solve it well,” he went on saying, “However, it was good that the professors at Pukyong National University explained it well systematically and I felt like it quenched my thirst for knowledge.” Fifty-eight ‘late bloomers’ from age groups of 20s to 60s, including Mr. Park, took the honor of the first graduation from Pukyong National University's Future Convergence College after four-years of working during the day and study at night. <Pukyong Today> |
