CHU Ready for 'Takeoff'
in Aerospace Talent Development
Industry-Academia-Government joint workshop on the 28th... 'Introducing practical education that goes beyond theory to work with real data'. Joining hands with Jeju's aerospace companies, we have begun full-scale training of 'practical aerospace talents' who solve regional problems using actual satellite data.
Workshop Overview
On November 28, 2025, Cheju Halla University RISE Project successfully held the 'Aerospace-focused AI Convergence Major Curriculum Cooperation Workshop' at Ramada Jeju Hamdeok Hotel. This workshop brought together university, high school, corporate, and local government representatives including Jeju Special Self-Governing Province Space Mobility Division, Jeju Creative Economy Innovation Center, Hallim Technical High School, as well as Airstars, Pix4D, Naraspace, Telepix, and JINS.
Practical Education: Moving Beyond Theory to Work with 'Real Data'
The core theme of the workshop was undoubtedly 'practicality'. Participants agreed that we must move away from theory-centered education and bring the satellite data and AI technologies that companies actually use into the classroom.
Satellite Data Preprocessing
Development of satellite data preprocessing education courses for curriculum design that can be immediately utilized in the field
On-board AI Technology
Composition of practical education programs including AI technology mounted on satellites
Data Safe Zone Designation
Discussion on ways to improve data accessibility by designating 'data safe zones' to utilize satellite data that was difficult to access due to security issues for educational purposes
Hallim High (HW) × CHU (SW/AI) × Companies (Data) Alliance
A convergence education model encompassing both hardware (HW) and software (SW) was also presented. 'Hallim Technical High School', which has strengths in hardware education, and 'Cheju Halla University', which handles software education such as AI and data analysis, will link together to build a systematic educational roadmap from basics to advanced levels.
Hallim Technical High School (HW)
Specialized in hardware education including drone and aircraft manufacturing
Cheju Halla University (SW/AI)
Specialized in software education including AI and data analysis
Companies (Data)
Providing actual satellite data and field technology
Through this, local governments and companies promised to actively contribute to building an 'aerospace talent pipeline' from high school to university, creating a virtuous cycle where Jeju youth receive professional education in the region, get employed by local aerospace companies, and settle down.
Key Outcomes
Vision
"For Jeju's space industry to succeed, nurturing people is more important than building buildings," and "This workshop is the first step in transplanting the 'real technology' that companies want into university education. We will provide living education such as projects where students analyze Jeju's satellite data to directly solve regional environmental and transportation problems."
