Discovery for job start-up camp run by JNU and Seogwipo School

Jeju National University Intellectual Properties Education Leading University Project (Kim In Joong, Director) ran a camp for “discovery-based job start-up” based on potentially patentable ideas; the camp was staged in Nanta Hotel, Jeju, with Seogwipo Industrial and Science High School students mentored by the camp and project staff.

The discovery camp featured a diagnostic analysis of a discovery idea and its improvement through discovery-related lectures and discussion among the high school and JNU students with faculty advisors as to idea generation, relevant technology investigation, idea consulting, team idea and presentation for eventual improvement of idea concepts.

TRIZ (Level 4) specialist Han Yoo Shin of Han DOT presented a discovery lecture illustrating 40 discovery principles for the high school participants to deduce their own ideas therefrom and improve them on their own.

In the camp program, 5 teams submitted their respective ideas with detailed descriptions for analysis and execution. Each team was comprised of 3~5 high schoolers, 1 graduate student educated in intellectual properties subject, and 1 faculty advisor.

Professors Kim In Joong (JNU Bio-materials), Lee Kwang Min (JNU Intellectual Properties Center), Kim Hee Pil (Elementary Laboratory Education), Choi Min Joo (JNU Medicine) and Kim Beom Yong (JNU Intellectual Properties Center) participated as faculty advisors at the camp

Park Sang Woo (Law and Policy Research Institute), Chung Dong Shik (Bio-materials graduate student), Yang Hyeok Joon and Kim Soo Min (JNU students) participated as mentors in the camp. 

Teachers (Lee Kuk Haeng, Son Seung Hwan, Kim Jong Dae, Kang In Kyung, and Kim Eun Bi) of Seogwipo Industrial and Science High School also played a participatory role in the camp.

The camp generated 5 patent application portfolios generated by the high school teams. The students plan to use the portfolios for intellectual properties-based job start-up after graduation from high school. Director Kim In Joong said the center continues to provide support for the idea-generated start-up activities in the future.
