To this end, Yonsei University will select 50 new students per year for the’Systems and Semiconductor Engineering Department’, Korea University will select’Semiconductor Engineering’ and 30 new students per year, and Sungkyunkwan University will select 70 students per year from the’Semiconductor Systems Engineering Department’ established in 2006.
In addition, the bio field, which is showing a high growth trend due to Corona 19, supports 7.6 billion won, which is more than doubled from the previous year. The bio field will invest a total of 7.6 billion won this year. Accordingly, in the case of the bio-convergence industry, a new master’s and doctoral education course was established (1.49 billion won), while short-term education for job seekers using GMP manufacturing facilities was expanded (30.2 → 59.6 billion won) for production and quality management and training of R&D personnel. do.
In the field of digital healthcare, it plans to promote education for current students and employees (200 million won) through the University Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation without a hitch.
In the future car sector, where the transition to eco-friendly and self-driving cars is accelerating, it will invest 10.59 billion won, an increase of 75% from the previous year.
In the case of the eco-friendly car parts industry, a new master’s/doctoral education course will be established (1.66 billion won), and the training of master’s and doctoral level personnel in the autonomous driving software field will be continuously supported (650 million won).
In addition, for current and retirees related to internal combustion locomotives that are experiencing the employment crisis, a new investment of 2.88 billion won this year for smooth job transition to the future vehicle sector, and 720 technical manpower is produced annually through four base universities in each region. I plan to do it.
It will invest 10.28 billion won, an increase of 86.3% from 53.8 billion won in the previous year, to innovation in key industries such as the digital new deal.
According to this, 71.3 billion won will be provided to nurture talents who will lead the digital new deal, such as digital transformation of the manufacturing industry, DNA fusion of major industries, and the spread of smart industrial complexes.
In order to promote the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry, a new AI training program for incumbent employees, such as executives and technical personnel, will be established.
In order to recognize the need for digital transformation first, and to cultivate talented people who will lead innovation in companies, a new executive-level AI training program was established (1.5 billion won, 500 people), and in the case of technical manpower who will implement digital transformation, five industries were selected to -New AI convergence education course (5 billion won, 1,250 people)
In order to promote the use of data, 5G, and AI in the product development and process stages, the new master’s and doctoral courses in “AI, robots, human and machine collaboration” and “data analysis-based electronic manufacturing” were established in a total of 12 fields of 298,000 billion. Invest 10,000 won.
In addition, it plans to promote smart industrialization by expanding the smart manufacturing process and education in specialized industries for each industrial complex (147 → 35 billion won, ↑138%) through universities between industrial complexes, and to produce 2,070 core talents specialized in local industries each year.
In the case of materials, parts, and equipment, which are the basis for the competitiveness of the manufacturing industry, KRW 28.9 billion is supported, an increase of 60% from the previous year.
Newly established training for reinforcement of technical competence for incumbent and retirees (small manager 3.6 billion won, root 1.5.3 billion won) to cultivate 1,100 working-level workers per year, and expand support for master’s and doctoral education programs (98.80 billion won → 14.97 billion won) to nurture advanced human resources We plan to invest heavily in
In the Green New Deal and carbon-neutral sector, it invests 48 billion won, an increase of 23.3% compared to 38.9 billion won last year.
