Institute for Adaptable Interdisciplinary Education
The Institute for Adaptable Interdisciplinary Education (“IAIE”) supports and nurtures CNU students
to acquire the interdisciplinary talents needed for promising jobs. It guides the students to plan their
futures, offers job information, and operates job placement programs. The IAIE
has three centers to pursue
these objectives: the Center for Career Development, the Center for Future Planning, and the Center for
Gender Equality.
The Center for Career Development offers job counseling and recommendation,
distributes job information,
and operates industry convergence programs such as internship and externship programs. The Center for
Future Planning performs career counseling, supports future planning, and offers job-related curriculum
and competitiveness enhancement programs. The Center for Gender Equality
develops and operates job
programs based on gender-specific needs.
Center for Research Facilities
The education and research activities for science and technology of the university require well-managed
high performance facilities and equipment. To satisfy the needs of the university members, two organizations,
the Educational Equipment Service Center (established in 1993) and Public Experiment Center (established
in 1997), were merged to form the Chonnam National University Center for Research Facilities (CCRF)
in 2001. Currently, the CCRF is located both at Gwangju and Yeosu campuses
to provide specialized
services to researchers of each campus. More than 80 kinds of the expensive and sophisticated equipment
in the CCRF is operated and maintained by highly-trained staff, and the output of the analyses is supplied
to the researchers. The CCRF also provides maintenance services for the educational equipment in individual
laboratories.
