[Financial News] Hansung University said on the 28th that it had visited universities in Tashkent and Khorezm Region, Uzbekistan, on the 21st and 22nd, signed memorandums of understanding (MOUs) to operate dual-degree programs, and discussed ways to expand student exchanges.
During the visit, Hansung University signed separate agreements with Ajou University in Tashkent and Ma'mun University to operate dual-degree programs. It also discussed operating short-term exchange programs and expanding exchanges of outstanding students with Urgench State University.
The university delegation visiting Uzbekistan included Cha Mun-kyung, head of Hansung University's Office of Glocal Cooperation; Kim Young-il, deputy head of the office; and Ahn Young-wook, head of the International Exchange Support Team.
The agreement signing ceremony held at Ajou University in Tashkent on the 21st was attended by President Gairat Muratov, First Vice President Kim Byeong-gwan, Vice President Bahodir Kuchkaro, and others.
The two universities agreed to pursue a 3+1 dual-degree program in interior design. Under the arrangement, students at Ajou University in Tashkent can earn degrees from both universities by studying locally for three years and then completing a one-year course of study at Hansung University.
On the 22nd, Hansung University signed an MOU with Ma'mun University to cooperate in Korean language education. The signing ceremony was attended by Ma'mun University President Arslonbek Nurjonov, Vice President for International Cooperation Izzatbek Rejapov, and others.
The two universities agreed to cooperate on joint academic activities, including seminars on Korean language teaching methods, as well as operating a 2+2 dual-degree program and expanding their exchange student program.
Hansung University plans to use the agreements to expand its international exchange network across Central Asia, extending it from Kazakhstan, where it already has ties, to Uzbekistan. It also plans to step up recruitment of international students through dual-degree and student exchange programs linked with local universities.
