 YU College of Mechanical and IT Engineering Dean Kim Young-tak said, “This has served as an opportunity to share the ideas of students in different majors on the field for utilizing IoT, which is a core technology of the future, and to make their own products by applying such ideas to improve their practical competencies.” He added, “I hope that they will take part in not only intramural contests, but also in various domestic and foreign contests to check their skills and improve their capacities.”
