Konkuk University follows its representative motto, “Intellectuals leading the generation, challenging the world.” In keeping with this motto, the University attempts to fulfill a role as “the building’s private school,” especially with a view to honoring the aims of the university’s founder. Thus, since 1994, the Agriculture Education Center, has sought, with the support of the local Chungbuk government, to help modernize farms and provide specialized agriculture management education for agricultural managers in the northern Chungbuk area (Chungju, Danyang, Jechon, Goesan, Eumseong).
