National Gunsan University (Acting President Eom Gi-wook) held two faculty meetings on September 2nd and 5th to activate the Modular Convergence Bachelor's Degree Program (MCD).

The meetings were attended by 111 faculty members, including Acting President Eom Gi-wook, Director Kim Hyo-joong of the Education Innovation Office, and Director Jung Hyeon-joon of the Modular Education Program Innovation Center, showing a high level of interest in the MCD program.

Discussions at the meetings included the establishment and operation of the MCD program, guidelines for educational development proposals, and gathering opinions on guidelines.

MCD is a new undergraduate system introduced starting from the 2024 academic year, allowing for the creation of modular education programs within the range of 36 to 72 credits, tailored to industry demand, moving away from the traditional major system and focusing on cultivating interdisciplinary talents. Currently, 296 students are participating in 29 programs.

Director Jung Hyeon-joon stated, "MCD is a future-oriented system where students design their studies autonomously," and expressed the intention to develop it into an educational model created together by reflecting the opinions of the members.
