I got a Ph.D of educational administration at the University of Iowa, USA in 1989. After that I worked at the Korea Educational Development Institute for 2 years as a senior researcher. The main topic that I studied was the development of rural schools. In 1994 I moved to Woosuk university and worked for 13 years as a professor. In 2007 I changed my working place to Kongju National University, which is one of 3 universities for educating preliminary teachers.
From 2000 to 2001 I had worked for Presidential Commission as a professional consultant. It was a great experience for making Korean educational plan. At that time our Commission had considered lots of Korean education tasks.
From 2015 I have worked for Korean University Accreditation Institute as a President. Accreditation is a very important role for developing and assuring Korean universities. As Korean accreditation system is at a first stage there are lots of issues which we have to solve together.
