I had always been interested in web programming and liked Japanese culture since childhood, so I decided to study again at Yeongjin College of Technology’s Computer Information Division, which is famous for Japanese employment.” He added, “I am happy to have achieved that dream.”

Student Lim Soo-min, who diligently built knowledge in network infrastructure by handling cloud computing and Linux, the department’s major subjects, for three years, was accepted by JCOM, the most preferred company among Japanese university students. He said, “Thanks to learning various technologies such as networks, AWS, and Linux and obtaining related certifications, I was able to gain the opportunity to demonstrate my abilities in Japan.”

Student Park Jung-min said about MIC, which held a company briefing session at the university, “I applied because I thought it was a company that offers opportunities for growth through a free atmosphere and diverse development experiences, and I was accepted.” He pledged, “I will thoroughly prepare for company life until joining.”

Lim Deok-sung, head of the Computer Information Division at Yeongjin College of Technology, emphasized, “Japanese IT students have strong benefits unique to Yeongjin, in addition to education programs specialized for overseas employment, to nurture professional talent.”
