Based on the Ministry of Education’s Korean Council for University Education (university information announcement center) website’s (https://www.academyinfo.go.kr) information, the number of SCI-class papers per professor at YU was 1.0531, placing third following Seoul National University at 1.5375 and Yonsei University at 1.1899.
While the number of total studies tend to be proportional to the number of full-time faculty, the actual research performance is revealed through the thesis performance per person. The research achievements of YU medical school professors have significant meaning in that it is connected to improving the quality of education and medical services of residents. While patients are becoming more and more lopsided to university hospitals in the Seoul area, this proves the excellence of the faculty that provides practical treatment at university hospitals in provincial regions. It is expected that such research achievements of medical school professors in other regions will have a positive effect on accelerating the regional balance of medical services in the future.
YU Medical Center Director Kim Tae-nyeon said, “This achievement of being third place in the nation for SCI-class papers per medical school professor did not happen overnight,” while adding, “Recently, our medical center has been contributing to the development of the bio medical industry based on high quality research and education infrastructure being selected as the convergence medical scientist fostering institute, innovative medical scientist joint research project institute, etc. We will continue to provide support for active research activities for the development of medicine in Korea.”
