Dongyang Mirae University (formerly Dongyang Technical College) is an industrial technical university in Seoul, South Korea. Under the belief that only technology can contribute to the nation's economic development, the University started in 1965 as the Dongyang Technical Senior High School. A quarter of a century has passed since then. With the spirit, 'A technical skill is worth greater than millions of money,' we are putting lots of effort into experimental and practical training. We are also trying to produce competent professionals who can adapt to industries through active academic-industrial cooperation and internships with interrelated and related companies. DMU teach specialized knowledge and technologies for the industries and strengthen personality education for students to have sound professional ethics. We foster creative and wise top-class professionals who will contribute to national industrial development and serve the human community. With the motto of "A technical skill is worth greater than millions of money" and the precepts of 'sincerity, thrifty, and philanthropy', Dongyang Mirae University has been a leading institute fostering professional specialists best suited to the needs of the industries. We have the vision of becoming the hub university of vocational education in Asia. DMU has developed based on the favor of the community and the good reputations of the industries. The recent significant results are as follows:- Recorded the best employment rate in the Seoul metropolitan area Earned the fund from the Ministry of Education for the increasement of educational competency (for the six years in series) Received the university accreditation from the Korea accreditation board for vocational higher education Received the IEQAS (International Education Quality Assurance System) certification from the Ministry of Education However, the current environmental situation is not friendly to Korean universities. It demands higher educational institutions to make radical changes. Universities' survival competition will become more intense due to a significant reduction of the educated population. Also, 'University Structural Reform' from the government is reestablishing University's function and the role and inducing qualitative improvement. It is time to overcome the limitations of quantitative growth. We should make our way by specializing in the University, developing valuable content for education, and differentiating education methods. In the Knowledge and Information-Based Society of the 21st century, occupations appear and perish faster and even faster. Therefore, community college status, which is responsible for higher vocational education, such as outplacement education, upgrading training, and re-education, will be reinforced. We, DMU, contribute to the local community and the national industries by providing education with high quality focused on internships to foster creative and wise professionals with the right values and professional ethics. We teach specialized knowledge and technologies for the industries and strengthen personality education to have sound professional ethics. We foster creative and wise top-class professionals who will contribute to national industrial development and serve the human community. View full university
