The DSU Department of Architectural Engineering has been selected as the best department in the field of architecture (construction) in the ‘2020 Industry Perspective University Evaluation’ hosted by the Ministry of Education and the Korean Council for University Education.

The Industry Perspective University Evaluation system has been in use in various fields since 2008, with the overall aim of suggesting directions for university curriculums to better support the cultivation of human resources tailored to industry needs. This year’s evaluation focused on the areas of the design, operation, and performance of industry-based curriculums, and was conducted by an evaluation committee composed of executives and staff from 20 domestic companies such as Samsung C&T Corporation, HDC Hyundai Development Company, and Lotte E&C, as well as by academic experts.

The DSU Department of Architectural Engineering was particularly highly evaluated for the introduction of the In-School Field System to support high-density experiential learning. The Department has also achieved the feat of being selected as the best department in the field of architecture (construction) three times in a row. About receiving this recognition, Dean of the Department of Architectural Engineering Lee Dong-woon said, “Through customized training courses in the industry, the number of successive employment success cases for our graduates is increasing. Using this evaluation as a foothold, we will do our best to strengthen the work competencies of students required by the industry.”
