Let’s Take Action for Our Juniors Alumni are trying to help their juniors by establishing a scholarship fund.
According to PKNU, Professor Moon, who has been teaching for 40 years as a professor as well as an alumnus of his graduate department at PKNU, donated ₩21million as scholarship. With this as a base, he suggested to the alumni to chip in for the scholarship fund for the development of the department. He is one of the department’s “old boys” who is a member of the 2nd graduating class of the Department of Engine, which is present-day Department of Mechanical System Engineering, and have taught as a professor of the same department for 40 years. The Department of Mechanical System Engineering first opened in 1968 under the name Department of Engine. The department of that time trained marine officers and took an active part in the deep-sea and inshore fisheries that were at the forefront of modernization of Korea. The department is now focusing on educating and researching the design, manufacture and management of precision machinery system, the field in which machine engineering is combined with electrical, electronic and control engineering. Professor Moon said, “I thought of this scholarship fund intending to facilitate the consistent development of our department which embodies history and tradition,” “The department has 2,100 graduates, and it would be a great aid if each of everyone donates 10,000 won. And that is the meaning for which I have donated 21 million won first.” he added. PKNU helped him set up a bank account for the fund, and he started fundraising activity with Jo Gang-gu, a member of the 14th graduating class as well as the chairman of the alumni association of the Department of Mechanical System Engineering. Account details are as follows: Bank: Suhyup Account Number: 1410-0553-9159 Account Holder’s Name: PKNU Development Fund <Pukyong Today> |
