The ceremony to sign the agreement was attended by Army Chief of Staff Gen. Kim Sang-ki and Korea University President Kim Byung-chul. It is the first time for the military to establish such a department at a private university. “I am glad that we are now able to bring up the cyber warriors that we need in the military,” Gen. Kim said during the event. President Kim responded by saying, “We are very happy that with the support from the Army, we can educate students who can contribute to strengthening our national security.” The cyber defense department will belong to the Graduate School of Information Security at the university, and admit 30 undergraduates for the four-year course from this fall, officials said.
