New agreements with Samsung and KAIST open up additional opportunities for students.
DTU has entered into two new agreements with KAIST—its partner university in Korea—and Samsung, which will open up new opportunities for researchers and students to take courses and work on projects with our Asian partners.
With KAIST, DTU has set up a special Data Interaction Cyber Programme, which gives DTU students in the field of Digital Media Engineering the chance to participate in online courses run by KAIST, combined with a one-term exchange visit at KAIST in Seoul.
The online courses take the form of direct video streams from the lecture rooms at KAIST, allowing students at DTU to play an active role in the lessons.
KAIST is a popular destination among DTU students, and DTU and KAIST have recently agreed to double the number of exchange places available.
The agreement with Samsung Construction & Trade—the original parent company of the Group best known for its electronic appliances—provides two DTU students every year with the chance to write their theses as a part of a company project in collaboration with Samsung C&T.
This will take the form of a three-month stay in Seoul, where the students will participate actively in one of Samsung C&T’s Research & Development projects, more specifically based in a department named Construction Project Technology.
