Ajou University President Park Hyung-ju attended the “Presentation on General Outline of the 2022 Revised Curriculum.”Hosted by the Ministry of Education on November 24, 2021, this event was attended not only by Ajou University President Park but also by Deputy Prime Minister and Education Minister Yoo Eun-hae and other dignitaries.President Park delivered a presentation entitled, “Progress on Revision of the Curriculum and Major Challenges.” Appointed as Chairman of the Committee on Revision of the National Curriculum by the Ministry of Education in April, President Park has since held 13 meetings on the direction of and challenges in a revision of the curriculum.During the presentation, he talked about the opinions that had been gathered through various channels to come up with an amendment and comprehensive discussions on and review of related research results, and how intense discussion occurred within the Committee on the questions, “Is it a sustainable alternative that can support the lives and growth of our children in the future?” and “Is it is an unbiased alternative that is balanced and reasonable?”During the Q&A session with reporters, a question was asked regarding how deficiencies could be prevented in basic academic skills as a result of a reduction in the amount of learning. President Park began answering by explaining that designing a curriculum is similar to designing a four-story building with common courses, general elective courses, career-related elective courses, and convergence elective courses for each floor, from bottom to top. Therefore, if there is too much time spent in the common and general elective courses, students will burn out before taking courses in the higher floors—the career-related and convergence elective courses. “It is important to keep students from becoming fatigued through the use of a suitable amount of study on the 1st and 2nd floors. […] The high school credit system should go together with class diversity as well as a diversity of levels.” He added, “It is important to find ways to encourage students to move on to the third and fourth floors. […] The university entrance exam system should be designed so students intensively studying, through elective courses in their area of interest, will be advantaged rather than disadvantaged.”The 2022 revised curriculum will be finalized and announced around November 2022 and will reflect major issues announced during this “Presentation on General Outline of the 2022 Revised Curriculum.” The revised curriculum will be applied to elementary first and second graders in 2024 and first graders of middle and high schools in 2025.

Ajou University has hosted a forum on the theme of student success. Internal experts from the university were joined by external experts in a hybrid format to deliver presentations and share cases of innovation in education and results.The “Forum to Disseminate Achievements of the University Innovation Support Program – Education Innovation for Student Success” was held at Ajou’s Yeonam Hall on December 10, 2021, and broadcast live via Ajou University Center for University Education Innovation’s YouTube channel. The forum consisted of two sessions and began with an opening address by Chang Woo-jin, Director of the Center for University Education Innovation, and encouraging words by Ajou University’s President Park Hyungju.The first session commenced with a keynote lecture by Bae Sang-hoon, Sungkyunkwan University Dean of Student Affairs and Chief of Student Success Center, and was entitled, “Vision for Student Success and Its Implementation: Achievements of the Past Three Years and Future Challenges.” Dean Bae emphasized that education, talented human resources, and student success were the core mission and zeitgeist of universities. He introduced the Student Success Center launched by Sungkyunkwan University and delivered a presentation on the achievements of various projects carried out by the Center and the challenges that lay ahead.This was followed by a presentation by Professor Choi Jung-hee of Dankook University’s Education Center for Academic Performance Evaluation on the theme, “Application and Achievements of CQI (Continuous Quality Improvement) for Ability-centered University Education,” in which she elaborated on such innovation using the keyword “skills.” In other words, universities need to become more competitive by ensuring the education they offer reflects their capacities, as well as those of their professors and students. Professor Choi introduced the application, and achievements of a system using feedback to connect professors and learning developed to continuously improve university lectures and the CQI system.The second session was a presentation on the attempts and achievements of Ajou University to innovate education. Ajou University Center for Teaching and Learning Director Shin Jong-ho delivered a presentation on “Data Utilizing Education and Support System Assisting Student Success in Learning.”Director Shin provided information on “ATLAS” (the Ajou Teaching & Learning Analytics System), a data utilizing teaching and learning support system developed and adopted by Ajou University in 2014. The school has since analyzed data on learners and learning environments and supported the optimization of learning programs and environments. Director Shin also introduced “PASS” (Pathway to Ajou Student Success) which offers data utilizing curricular and extracurricular learning pathways tailored to the attributes students need. In addition, the session offered information on the AI-based adaptive learning platform recently developed and researched by Ajou University, known as “ALEKS.” The Aju University has gone on to develop this global platform further to support learning designed for individual students.“There is a meaningful correlation between lessons utilizing the AI platform and academic achievement,” said Director Shin. “Subjects that facilitate greater interaction in lessons using this system had a higher correlation index with academic achievement.”He added that thorough preparation and implementation by instructors and practical support from and the establishment of goals and vision on the utilization of AI by the university, as well as cooperation between the university and its departments, among other things, were vital to tailoring the speed and level of education for each student and to expand interaction in a course designed around individualized learning.This was followed by a lecture entitled, “A Model for High-intensity Interaction-centered General Education and Cases of Its Operation[KHTC6]” by Professor Ahn Ji-youn from Dasan University College, and a presentation by Han Gwang-hee, a student in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, on participating in the University Innovation Support Program.

Ajou University ranks 11th in Korea JoongAng Daily [KHTC1]University Rankings, leading in student education and technology transferAjou University ranked 11th in the 2021 Korea JoongAng Daily University Rankings, leading particularly in student participation in workplace internships, student education, and technology transfer income per member. Released on November 10, the 2021 Korea JoongAng Daily University Rankings assessed 44 four-year universities with at least four colleges among the humanities, social sciences, engineering, natural sciences, medicine, and the arts and physical education. The evaluation is based on four categories: faculty research, educational environment, efforts and achievements in student education, and reputation.Ajou University received 159 points on the evaluation, coming in at joint 11th place. Previously, it ranked 11th for two consecutive years (2018 and 2019). However, due to the COVID-19 crisis, the evaluation was not conducted last year. In particular, Ajou University ranked sixth in efforts and achievements in student education, which evaluates student employment and participation in startup businesses. Specifically, the university performed well in terms of student participation in workplace internships (second) and support for student participation in startup businesses and performance (ninth). In relation to Ajou’s collaboration projects with local businesses, the Korea JoongAng Daily noted that Ajou had ranked second in student participation in workplace internships thanks primarily to Ajou’s industry-friendly program, entitled “One Person, One Company, One Achievement,”[KHTC2] which encourages freshmen and sophomores to put theory into practice and enables juniors and seniors to develop their adaptability and practical skills through an industry-academia cooperation-friendly curriculum and practical work experience. In fact, the university offers a wide range of internship opportunities to increase students’ exposure to diverse workplaces and allow them to apply their theoretical knowledge in the real business world. Amid the COVID-19 pandemic last year, more than 1,000 students participated in internship programs. In the faculty research category, Ajou ranked seventh in technology transfer income per member (KRW 14.52 million). Ajou has achieved great success in technology commercialization, showing an upward trend in terms of revenue from technology transfers over the past five years. Ajou recorded KRW 3.35 billion in technology transfers in 2020, putting it in seventh place. For 2020, the average technology transfer revenue of all universities in Korea that participated in the disclosure of such information to the Ministry of Education this June was KRW 710 million. In this year’s evaluation, Seoul National University ranked first place, followed by Yonsei University (second), Hanyang University (third), Sungkyunkwan University (fourth), and Korea University (fifth). The Korea JoongAng Daily applies 33 criteria for a maximum of 300 points in such four categories as faculty research (10 criteria, 95 points), educational environment (12 criteria, 95 points), efforts and achievements in student education (7 criteria, 80 points), and reputation (4 criteria, 30 points). This year, the Korea JoongAng Daily raised the maximum number of points for employment, employment retention, and increased the criteria for student participation in startup businesses.

An Ajou University research team has developed a miniaturized robot (gripper) in the shape of a finger that can accurately measure the slightest pulse or heartbeat of living organisms. It is expected to be applied in the future as a bio medical robot since it can monitor bio signals by gently holding the cardiovascular system of tiny living organisms or a person.The research team, led by Professors Han Seung-yong, Kang Dae-shik, and Koh Je-seong (photo from left, Department of Mechanical Engineering), announced their successful development of a miniaturized, high precision soft gripper 3 – 5 mm in size that imitates the functions of a human hand.The team’s research results were published in the October 13, 2021 online edition of the prestigious Science Robotics under the title, “Vital signal sensing and manipulation of a micro-scale organ with a multifunctional soft gripper”. Noh Yeon-wook and Kim Min-ho, students in mechanical engineering at Ajou University, took part in the research as lead authors.The human hand is unique among the grippers of animals and plants that exist in nature, as its five fingers can move independently and are dense with sensory cells that allow delicate, accurate handling, and can identify the condition of an object. Since the 4th Industrial Revolution began, many studies are ongoing to imitate the abilities of the human hand in many fields, such as medical and other robots.Conventional grippers are mainly made of hard materials and cannot grip soft objects. Additionally, the installation of sensors to receive bio signals increases the size of these grippers, making them impossible to use with small living organisms. Miniaturized medical grippers require high precision control and integration with peripheral electronic devices and highly sensitive sensors and measurement.The Ajou research team used shape memory polymer of variable stiffness where hardness and softness can be controlled to allow creation of a gripper with properties similar to the skin of a living organism. It also utilized silver Nano wires and a laser process to miniaturize sensors and managed to reduce the robot to 5mm or less. Silver Nano wires elaborately control each of the five fingers of a soft gripper, while also serving as temperature sensors that can monitor the bio signals of the object it is measuring and also deliver heat stimulus.The soft gripper developed by the research team gripped a snail egg 3mm in diameter without damaging it, delivered heat to facilitate hatching, and measured the snail’s miniscule movements during hatching and its heartrate immediately after hatching (snail size: 400 – 699 micrometers). Furthermore, it gripped the blood vessel of a live pig to measure its pulse without hurting it, and managed to grip salmon roe, which are very delicate and easily damaged. The soft gripper itself weighs 25.4 milligrams but can momentarily lift objects up to 6400 times heavier than itself and continuously hold objects that are 1200 times heavier.“Existing research on grippers has only measured the signals of the object they grip, but this research enabled grippers to diagnose, analyze results, and provide treatment to the object,” said Prof. Han. “It can be used in the development of miniaturized medical robots and in new platforms to analyze the mechanical movement, stimuli, and response of living organisms at the level of a human cell, an area full of countless challenges.”He continued, “Through follow-up research, we plan to expand this into new directions, such as electrical stimuli, drug delivery, and wireless movement.”This research was sponsored by the Korean Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT)’s Individual Basic Research (New Research) program.<The soft gripper is used to facilitate the hatching of a snail egg and measure its bio signals><Micro soft gripper developed by the research team><Using a soft gripper to grip salmon roe and other objects>

Ajou University Professor Chang Il-han from the Department of Civil Systems Engineering succeeded in developing new construction material technology using microorganism-based biopolymer.Biopolymer, a macromolecule polysaccharide that generates microorganisms, is combined with earth and ground reinforcement technology that enable high intensity. It is gaining attention as an environmentally-friendly, low-carbon green technology that can replace cement in the field of construction.Prof. Chang’s research findings were announced in Issue 307 of the journal Construction and Building Materials and entitled, ‘Site application of biopolymer-based soil treatment (BPST) for slope surface protection: in-situ wet-spraying method details and strengthening effect verification’.Prof. Chang’s research team was joined by research teams from the Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology (KICT) and theKorea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST).Prof. Chang has been conducting research on green construction materials that can replace cement in ground reinforcement engineering. His focus is on using biopolymer.Soil combined with biopolymer displays high compression intensity, is highly resistant to erosion from water and wind, and facilitates generative growth. It is in the spotlight as a technology with applications to a variety of green construction fields and in the response to climate change, but had yet to be developed to the commercialization stage for use onsite.Prof. Chang’s research team developed a wet spray technology to allow the construction of high intensity biopolymer-earth surface layer that involves creating a soil, biopolymer and water mixture and spraying it on the construction surface.“This technology we developed creates a high intensity green surface stratum by mixing and spraying an earth, water and 0.5 – 1% biopolymer mixture. It is resistant to erosion from heavy rain and winds, and displays fast generative growth,” explained Prof. Chang.He added, “Application is expected not only for surface stabilization of mountain slopes, stream beds, high flow plains, and embankments, but also for restoring the ecosystems of earth’s surface in areas that have become wastelands due to wild fires or desertification.”It is currently undergoing a technology transfer to a business in green construction.
