President Chung Seung-ryeol's Congratulatory Message to the 2024 Fall Semester Degree Recipients
- 25.09.02 / 전윤실
Hello. I am Jeong Seung Ryul, President of Kookmin University.
I extend my heartfelt congratulations and gratitude to today's honorees, our graduates, and to the family members who have joined us here. Graduation marks a significant turning point in life and a new beginning. It is the culmination of the sweat, effort, passion, and perseverance you have poured into your studies over the past years, and a valuable testament to your potential. I also extend my deepest gratitude to your families, friends, and professors who supported you and walked alongside you.
Kookmin University has achieved remarkable results in recent years through continuous innovation and effort. These include ranking 13th nationally in the JoongAng Ilbo University Evaluation over the past 1-2 years, being selected as the lead institution for three areas of the University Consortium Talent Development Project, and securing outstanding performance. In the first half of this year, the university demonstrated even greater strides: receiving an S-grade for the University Innovation Support Project for the third consecutive year, securing selection for four projects under the Seoul RISE initiative, and winning four large-scale research projects worth over 10 billion won each. These results are not short-term achievements but rather the valuable fruits of consistent university policies rooted in the spirit of entrepreneurship and the dedicated efforts of all members over a long period. Our university has now firmly established itself as a truly competitive institution. I am confident that you, our graduates, will carry this pride into society and further enhance the reputation of Kookmin University.
Graduation is not an end but a new beginning. You may feel excitement, and sometimes fear. Yet life is precisely unpredictable, making it all the more worth challenging. What matters is maintaining a positive attitude in any situation and cultivating a mindset of continuous learning and growth. By using difficulties as stepping stones to advance further, you will ultimately go much farther.
Kookmin University will always stand as a steadfast pillar supporting your future endeavors. We look forward to seeing you shine as proud alumni across all fields of society and sincerely cheer you on as you embark on this new journey. Thank you.
