Pukyong National University Selected for BK21 Pilot Project to Support the Development Pathways of Outstanding Science and Engineering Talent

― Funding Secured Through February 2027 to Discover and Foster Outstanding Talent in Science and Engineering

― Establishes a Comprehensive Support System Covering Academic Growth from Undergraduate to Graduate Studies

 

Pukyong National University (President Sang-Hoon Bae) has been selected for the “Support Project for the Development Pathways of Outstanding Science and Engineering Talent,” a new pilot initiative launched in 2026 under the Phase 4 BK21 (Brain Korea 21) Program, administered by the Ministry of Education and the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF).

 

Introduced this year, the project aims to identify and systematically support outstanding students in science and engineering from the undergraduate level, enabling them to develop into the next generation of academic researchers. Its core objective is to establish a structured talent development pathway that progressively strengthens research capabilities from undergraduate students to graduate students and early-career researchers.

 

Among the 28 universities that applied for the program, the Ministry of Education and the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) selected 10 universities for preliminary designation, including Pukyong National University, Korea University, Sungkyunkwan University, Yonsei University, Chung-Ang University, POSTECH, Pusan National University, Yonsei University Mirae Campus, Chonnam National University, and Chungnam National University.

 

The selected universities will receive a total of KRW 8.48 billion in project funding through February 2027 to operate programs for identifying outstanding science and engineering students and strengthening their research capabilities.

 

Following its selection, Pukyong National University has established the vision of becoming an “R&D Lifelong Growth Partner for Outstanding Science and Engineering Talent.” Under this vision, the university will build a seamless talent development pathway spanning from the undergraduate level to postdoctoral researchers. Through a three-stage framework―“Take Root, Bloom, and Grow into a Forest”―the project aims to cultivate outstanding talent in close partnership with the local community.

 

The Ministry of Education and the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) will complete the objection review process by July 6 and announce the final list of selected universities later in July.

 

The Phase 4 BK21 (Brain Korea 21) Program is a flagship national initiative designed to foster world-class research-oriented universities and cultivate highly qualified master’s and doctoral researchers by strengthening graduate education and research capacity. Running from 2020 to 2027, the seven-year program currently supports 595 Education and Research Groups and graduate school innovation projects at 63 universities across Korea. <Pukyong Today>
