Companies answered Yonsei University on the question of creative task solving ability. Yonsei became a new addition this year, with 2nd and 3rd going to Korea University and Seoul National University, respectively. Korea and Seoul National showed a difference of only 3 points. Creative task solving ability is the power to actively find hidden problems and opportunities at the workplace and it has become a main factor in recent recruitment.
Graduates from Korea University are selected to be faithful employees, showing high marks (614 points) on sincerity and responsibility. Second placed, SKKU earned 485 points and the 3rd,4th and 5th places went to Yonsei, Sogang and Hanyang Universities, respectively. These schools had similar showings with significant difference with 6th placed SNU.
With regard to internationalization, currently one of the biggest issues among universities, Yonsei was ranked No.1 for the second consecutive year. Yonsei University is said to be planning to open the Songdo Global Academic Complex (Songdo GAC) in March of 2010.
Two newcomers were Ewha Woman’s University, ranked 7th place, and Pusan University, ranked 10th, which did not appear last year. While last year’s 10th place school, Konkuk University, fell to 14th place. Universities with prominent business schools are trying to raise their lectures in English to over 50 percent. In addition, they are trying to expand dual degrees through exchanges with overseas universities.
The top 200 domestic companies chose in order of Korea University, Yonsei University, and SNU as the most desirable new employees. This was the same as last year. Hanyang University stepped back to 6th from 4th place last year, and SKKU along with Sogang University improved by one step this year.
With regard to school recommendability, SNU lost its 1st place ranking falling to 3rd place. Last year’s 2nd and 3rd place schools, Korea University and Yonsei University both moved up one level. SKKU maintained its 4th place standing.
