YU (President Sur Gil-soo) held the 2nd YU RoboCup, which is a robot football tournament.
 This contest was hosted by the YU College of Mechanical and IT Engineering and the PRIME Project Team and it was held at the YU Automobile Hall lobby at 1 p.m. on January 31 with the PRIME Robot Project Team as the sponsor. Approximately 70 students in schools (departments) working with the PRIME project participated.
 Following the debut year last, the second ‘YU RoboCup’ held this year is a robot football contest using self-made balancing robots. Students participate in the contest by producing their own balancing robot by integrating mechanical, electronic, electric, SW, and wireless communication technologies. Teams were made up of two students for one robot and they control their self-built robots using smartphone applications, RC controllers, etc. in a tournament held in a designated stage.

 YU President Sur Gil-soo said, “The importance of robot engineering has been rising in Korea and this is shown with AI robot football tournaments being held. Students will be able to enhance their understanding on technological convergence and improve their problem-solving skills by building and operating their own balancing robot by combining what they learn from their major and IT technologies.” He added, “We will pursue various integration and convergence education programs to help YU students become creative convergence talents that will lead the fourth industrial revolution.”
 The ‘botnaldu’ team (photo on right) comprised of School of Mechanical Engineering Cho Yong-woon (sophomore) and Lee Tae-hoon (sophomore, ‘Mechanical Systems’ major) won the tournament. ‘EESOFT’ team comprised of Department of Electronic Engineering Kim Ga-yeon (junior) and Lee Seung-jae (sophomore) came in second place.
 Meanwhile, as part of the Ministry of Education’s ‘PRogram for Industrial needs – Matched Education (PRIME) project’, YU established the College of Mechanical and IT Engineering in 2017. YU split the electric, electronic, computer, information communication and mechanical engineering majors within its former College of Engineering to establish the College of Mechanical and IT Engineering, while newly establishing the Department of Robotics and Intelligent Machine Engineering and the Department of Automotive Engineering. YU is focusing on developing its mechanical, electrical, electronic and computer sectors, which YU is traditionally known to be especially strong in, together with smart robots and future automobiles, which are future new growth engine fields.
