Jeonbuk National University (JBNU) (President Yang Oh-bong) has opened the "JBNU-G Graduate Study Lounge" in the Residence Hall as a dedicated space to enhance the research capabilities of graduate and international students.
JBNU, recognizing the need for spaces to improve the welfare of graduate and international students, renovated Room 101 of Chambit 1 Hall in the Residence Hall as part of the 4th Phase BK21 Graduate School Innovation Project and created a 98 m² study lounge.
On March 18 at 1:30 p.m., an opening ceremony was held attended by President Yang Oh-bong and administrative faculty, who toured the newly established study lounge together.
The Graduate Study Lounge was designed so that graduate residents and international students can comfortably visit to study together and increase research immersion, and can rest there to improve psychological stability.
Located in Chambit Hall, which houses 426 international students and 117 graduate students, the lounge is expected to be highly utilized by students.
At the opening ceremony, President Yang Oh-bong said, "Because creative ideas that move the world arise in pleasant spaces where one can study without concern, the Graduate Study Lounge opened today will be a source of JBNU's research competitiveness that will change the world," adding, "I hope this space becomes an inexhaustible wellspring for generating creative ideas among graduate students and international students."
