Kookmin University (President Jeong Seung Ryul)'s Next Generation Communication Business Unit (Director Park Jun Suk) has concluded the '2024 RAPA Next Generation Communication Academy' with the Radio Association of Korea (RAPA) under the Ministry of Science and ICT to foster talent in the field of next generation communication as part of the Innovation Convergence University in High-tech Fields project sponsored by the Ministry of Education and the Korea Research Foundation.

 

 

The 2024 RAPA Next Generation Communication Academy is the first educational program operated by the University of Next Generation Communication Innovation and Convergence and the Korea Radio Promotion Association, and is a hands-on employment program designed by the two organizations to foster innovative talents in the field of next generation communication.

 

 

The training was held at RAPA's Songdo IoT Technology Support Center for 21 students from the Next Generation Communication Innovation Convergence University Consortium (Kookmin University, Seoul National University, Ulsan National University of Science and Technology, Jeonnam National University, and Korea Aerospace University).

 

 

The training course consisted of basic RF education, theoretical education on mobile communication technology, instrument equipment practice, 5G mobile communication practice, antenna measurement practice, and actual field practice based on the educational environment infrastructure of the Songdo IoT Technology Support Center of the Korea Radio Communication Association.

 

 

Students who participated in the '2024 RAPA Next Generation Communication Academy' said, “It was very helpful to learn communication theories and concepts in a short period of time, and to practice by directly handling observation instruments used in practice. In particular, I was able to strengthen my career direction and motivation based on the advice and practical experience of those working in the industry.” ”It was a great opportunity to see and learn about devices that I could not handle in school, and I acquired a lot of theories and information that are not covered in undergraduate courses.”

 

“It was very beneficial to be able to summarize the basic concepts of telecommunications and the trends and visions for the technologies currently being used.”

 

 

According to a representative from the Next Generation Communication Business Unit, “As this training is an educational program aimed at directly fostering practitioners in the field of next-generation communication, we will provide information on the work environment and physical access to help them grow into prepared human resources.” Starting with this program, we will establish close cooperation with the Korea Radio Promotion Association to develop it into a practical training program that will help them find employment in the field of next-generation communication.

 

 

Meanwhile, Kookmin University's Next Generation Communication Business Unit has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Radio Association of Korea (RAPA) for mutual cooperation to promote the growth and development of both organizations with the goal of fostering talents in cutting-edge fields including next-generation communication. Kookmin plans to continue to expand cooperation with companies and public institutions to promote educational innovation and specialized education in the field of next-generation communications.
