It cultivates practical experience in the following areas. ■ Presentation skill ■ Teamwork and leadership ■ Specialized engineering skill

13. Faculties are performing world-class research • research fund during Jan.2003-June 2006 reached 9 million USD. These research projects have provided lots of benefits for students -- chances of professional experience, scholarship, employment and advanced education

14. BK (Brain Korea 21) Project BK 21 is a project from the Ministry of Education to improve the graduate school system. Two teams from the college are joining the project now. It brings great help in research and many graduate students of the college are recipients. ■ BcN-SoC Research & Education Team ■ Next Generation RFID Research & Education Team

15. Samsung Electro-Mechanics Power Electronics Research Center • Samsung Electro-Mechanics founded research center at the college to collaborate with the researchers of the college of EECS in the area of display circuit and electric vehicle. Samsung uses this research center as an advanced base for the development of new products. Research facilities and scholarship are provided by Samsung.

16. RF Shower Development: Leading Basic Research Sponsored by the MIC • The Ministry of Information and Communication considered the RF Shower System as one of the key IT technologies and designated the College of EECS to lead the project; it is to expand the recognition distance of RFID. About 7 million US dollars are funded for this project.

17. Field Practice Certified by Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy • Junior or senior students can take the field practice during summer vacation at several companies that our college has set up agreements with. Students can experience field technologies and development processes while earning credits at the same time.

18. Partners of the College of EECS • Korean Government (Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Information and Communication), City of Seoul, ETRI, KETI, SK Telecom, KT, Samsung Electronics, Samsung SDI, Samsung Electro-Mechanics and many other renowned enterprises collaborate with our college in opening the era of IT Korea.

19. NEXT projects from the MIC in three tracks • NEXT (Nurturing EXcellent engineers in information Technology) is a project executed by the Ministry of Information and Communication (MIC) to increase the educational competence in IT area. Three teams from the college are selected to participate in the project. This program has been a great contribution to the curricula and experimental environments. ■ RFID/USN track ■ C-SoC track ■ Embedded Software track
