Brain Korea 21 Plus – EcoScience Creative Academy

Korean government funded this graduate-level interdisciplinary training program that aims to produce creative experts in the fields of media, design, exhibition, publishing who utilize and disseminate scientific insights from the studies of Ecology, Evolution, and Biodiversity. Such experts will ultimately contribute to creating new industry and culture for ecology-minded society. To achieve this goal we established a new graduate program “Interdisciplinary Program of EcoCreative” by assembling faculty from Departments of Life Science (EcoScience), Media Study, Industrial Design, Science Education, and Environmental Engineering. Experts trained in this program will address societal demand for learning and experiencing the richness of biodiversity and ecosystems as well as academic tasks for advancing ecology in Korea. The training focuses on translating important scientific achievements in ecology and biodiversity research into products that are easily approachable for general public, such as documentary films, ecology-inspired design, and scientific exhibition/publishing. We are also collaborating with related industry and institutions outside Ewha, for example EBS (Korean Education Broadcasting System) documentary team and the National Institute of Ecology of Korea.
