1. (Education) Short-Term Intensive Capability Enhancement for Developing Digital Innovation Talent (Global Education)  , IITP, 2024.11-2030.5 

     : This is a program designed to allow graduate students in the field of information security in Korea to take classes and study at the University of Oxford in the UK. Each year, around 30 students are selected, and both living expenses and tuition fees are fully covered. Additionally, prior to departure, information security education is provided at Korea University’s Graduate School of Information Security to ensure that students can receive high-quality education at top universities in both Korea and the UK. We kindly ask for the support and interest of many students. 

** Anyone interested in conducting research in the above areas can apply to the School of Cybersecurity at Korea University and then contact our lab!  **
