As part of the agreement, the universities will launch a global project-based learning capstone titled 'Local Storytelling' this summer. Students will work in international teams to explore regional history and culture and reframe them through creative, practical outputs. The program is designed to strengthen problem-solving, teamwork, and cross-cultural communication skills-key assets for today’s global job market.
The partnership also builds on Jeonbuk’s ongoing international initiatives, including previous project-based programs with Vietnamese institutions. University leaders said the tie-up moves beyond traditional exchanges and places students at the center of global, practice-oriented education.
