Our university signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Special Warfare School (Commandant: Brigadier General Kim Jong Tak, hereinafter “SWS”) on March 4^th (Wed), to support the education of military personnel and promote mutual cooperation.

The Special Warfare School is the only special operations training institution in the Korean armed forces. It provides training for special warfare non-commissioned officers and continuing education, as well as 23 specialized certification programs including sniper training, high-altitude infiltration, maritime reconnaissance units, and Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JFO) training. It also offers commissioned training programs for the Navy, Air Force, and the National Intelligence Service.

This agreement was established to promote the mutual development of both institutions and to expand self-development opportunities and strengthen the competencies of military officers through educational collaboration. The signing ceremony was attended by Brigadier General Kim Jong Tak, Commandant of the Special Warfare School, along with President Lee Eun Ju and other officials from our university, where both parties discussed future cooperation plans.

Brigadier General Kim Jong Tak stated, “Through this agreement with Seoul Cyber University, which is well known for its military-specialized education, we expect to further expand opportunities for self-development and practical training for military personnel.”

President Lee Eun Ju commented, “It is very meaningful to establish this partnership with the Special Warfare School, the only special operations training institution in Korea. By sharing Seoul Cyber University’s accumulated expertise in online education systems and academic operations, we will actively cooperate to create the best possible educational synergy between our institutions.”

Meanwhile, as a military-friendly university, Seoul Cyber University has the largest number of active-duty military students among cyber universities and is recognized for its military-specialized education. The university supports exemplary soldiers and their families by hosting campus visits and cultural experience programs. It also actively reflects the educational needs of the military through programs such as the Department of Military and Police Counseling the first of its kind among cyber universities and the Department of Defense AI, which has been reorganized to meet the evolving demands of the armed forces.

In addition, the university established the Military Education Support Center to strengthen specialized competencies for military officers and provide systematic military education. Through structured research on the educational needs of each branch of the military, the university offers customized curricula tailored to learners’ demands. In particular, programs have been developed to address current military needs, including counseling competency enhancement for officers, leadership training, adjustment programs for maladjusted soldiers, squad leader leadership training, and early childhood development support programs for military families.

Furthermore, to expand academic opportunities for service members, the university operates a Military Entrusted Student admission track. Military personnel admitted through this track receive a 50% tuition scholarship for regular semester courses during their enrollment. To ensure high-quality education, specialized researchers in counseling, psychology, leadership, and character development continuously develop academic programs. The university also provides academic and counseling services tailored to the unique military environment, supporting military students in successfully completing their studies.
