- 25.09.25 / 전윤실
Kookmin University (President Jeong Seung Ryul) and Amazon Web Services (AWS) agreed to collaborate on contributing to future technology and education innovation at the Kookmin University Main Administration Building on Wednesday, September 10.
AWS, the cloud computing division of Amazon, the world's largest e-commerce company, was established in 2006. It provides on-demand IT infrastructure services such as computing, storage, and databases to individuals, businesses, and governments. As the most comprehensive and widely adopted cloud platform globally, it is Amazon's core business unit, delivering flexibility, scalability, and cost efficiency in IT infrastructure operations.

Attending the signing ceremony were Kookmin University President Jeong Seung Ryul, Vice President for Planning Sohn Jin Sik, and six AWS employees, including Jeff Kratz, Vice President of Global Public Sector, Nonprofit, and International Industry Sales at AWS.
Through this collaboration, the two institutions plan to support practical projects in multiple areas, including: ▲ Developing cloud-based micro-degree curricula in quantum computing and artificial intelligence ▲ Developing and operating AI-based startup camp education programs ▲Supporting practical projects through the establishment of an industry-academia collaboration project environment ▲Providing other commercialized web-scale computing services.
Beyond the signing ceremony, AWS executives observed classes at Kookmin University's College of Software Convergence and held a Q&A session with students regarding recruitment, including the type of talent they seek.
Kookmin University President Jeong Seung Ryul stated, “Kookmin University, which declared Korea's first quantum campus last July, is proactively responding in various areas such as education and infrastructure based on quantum technology.” He added, “The cooperation with AWS will provide students with opportunities to experience cutting-edge technology and develop practical skills that can be immediately applied in the industrial field.”
