[April 6, 2010]

 A Chinese student who completed his bachelor and master course at Yeungnam University returned to his home in glory as a professor. 

   This is the story of Yangshuo (27, photo), who acquired his bachelor and master at the Yeungnam University majoring in industrial design. In February 2007, he graduated from the Yeungnam University School of Design, and soon after enrolled in the master\'s degree program in the Department of Industrial Design(an adviser, Park, Sang-woo), and earned his master\'s degree in 2 years. In March, he was hired as a full-time professor at the Luxun Academy of Fine Arts in China.

 Luxun Academy was established in 1938, and is the top 3 art academies of China together with the China Central Academy Of Fine Arts in Beijing and China Academy of Art in Hangzhou. It currently has campuses in Shenyang and Dalian, and offers 21 majors in 11 art design divisions in order to produce outstanding students that can lead the art design world of China.

 After seeing a hiring ad for full-time professors at the Luxun Academy of Fine Arts on the Internet in April of last year, he organized his research outputs that he prepared during his studies abroad and sent them with his resume. In early March this year, he was hired as a full-time professor and is giving lectures on fundamental computer designs at the visual design and public design majors at Luxun Academy of Fine Arts.

 Because he enrolled in the PhD Course in the Yeungnam University Graduate School of Art Design (majoring in design), he is continuing his degree program online, and he stated that \"In parallel with school work, it\'s not easy to lecture, but I want to contribute in the development of the public design sector in China by conducting in-depth research on public design at Yeungnam University, which is the only convergence design university in the Yeungnam region.\"

 There are currently 48 international students enrolled in the design school of Yeungnam University, and since 2000, there were a total of 33 international students that graduated or completed the necessary courses. Among them Maran (32), who earned a master\'s degree in visual image design last August, is currently working for the Beijing Globalization Corporation, while Pu Hailian (25) graduated from the School of Design (majoring in visual design) in August 2008 and is now employed with the Beijing National Publishing Company. They are actively taking part in the design sector currently.

 Professor Rew, Ho-yong, dean of the Yeungnam University Graduate School of Art and Design, stated, \"This is international recognition of the Yeungnam University School of Design.\" He added, \"I hope that more international students return to their homes and are socially recognized, while also contributing in enhancing the image of our university and our nation.\"
