‘Faculty-Student Mentoring Day’: A Special Time with Academic Advisors
Korea University Business School (Dean=Kim Jae Wook) held the ‘Faculty-Student Mentoring Day’ event for Spring 2019 on April 8th (Mon), 11th (Thu), and 12th (Fri) at Ahn Young Il Hall and Cuckoo Hall, LG-POSCO Building. The event was held for three days at Ahn Young Il Hall and Cuckoo Hall at LG-POSCO Building between 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM, and 54 faculty and 488 undergraduates participated.
After each student’s pre-application to the event, each student was able to freely attend the meeting and had lunch with their academic advisors in a comfortable atmosphere. In addition, group mentoring was held regarding matters which require advice such as academics, career, and scholarship. The students in attendance spoke not only with their academic advisors but also with other students sitting at the same table, revealing each other's current situation and concerns. Foreign students also participated together as mentees, actively communicating and sharing meaningful time.
"As a freshman, I had many problems including my school life, but I think the advice I received from my professor helped me a lot," said Park Yong-chan (Undergraduate, admitted in '19), who attended the event on Tuesday. "As my professor said, I would like to seriously explore what I want, and do my best in that field and have no regrets."
"I had a great time since I was able to hear many stories that helped senior students who are serious about their career," said Hong Chang-ui (Undergraduate, admitted in '14), who attended the meeting on Wednesday. "I was also very happy that my academic advisor, Professor Kim Jaehwan, created a happy atmosphere for mentee students."
The ‘Faculty-Student Meeting Day’ of KUBS is an event where professors and business students can meet and talk about their studies and careers. Business schools are holding events every semester to narrow the distance between faculty and students, and motivate students to study. The event, which began in 2011, has established itself as a mentoring program for KUBS based on students' high satisfaction.
