The bachelor of GTU will continue his studies at Seoul University, funded by the South Korean state

Goga Bebia, a graduate of the Faculty of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy of the Georgian Technical University, from September 2024 will continue her studies in the master’s program at Dongguk University in Seoul with the funds obtained within the framework of the program “Global Korea Scholarship” (GKS), which is fully funded by the South Korean state. 

The South Korean Government Scholarship Program will provide the Bachelor of Chemistry Education program with full tuition funding and a 2-year scholarship.

As the dean of the Faculty of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy of GTU, Associate Professor Liana Targamadze noted the successful bachelor of the university – Goga Bebia, took part in the Korean scholarship program through the “Embassy Track” of the South Korean Embassy in Georgia, which provides for the selection of only 5 students from Georgia every year.

“The Korea Global Scholarship is one of the most prestigious scholarships in the world’s educational space, also known as the South Korean Government Scholarship Program.

To receive the scholarship, Goga went through a multi-stage selection process at the company representing the South Korean program and three leading universities in South Korea.

As a result of the selection, our bachelor received an offer from all three highly rated universities, which is a great success for the Faculty of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy of the Georgian Technical University. 

Our graduate has chosen Dongguk University, where he will continue his studies in the Master’s program in chemistry from September 2024. We hope that the two years spent at Dongguk University in Seoul will be fruitful in many ways for our graduate, and he will use the acquired knowledge for the development of Georgian science,” said the dean. 

Professor Irine Berdzenishvili of the Department of Chemistry of the Faculty of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy highly appreciates the graduate’s knowledge and research skills.

As she said, Bachelor Goga Bebia also holds the Higher International Certificate of Korean Language (TOPIK), which allows him to continue his studies at Dongguk University’s master’s program in Korean language without taking an additional course.
