THE Sorsogon State University signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Dagam Farm in South Korea to produce internship programs and strengthen the efforts of the university through internationalization.

The MOA siging was held last November 20 at the Sorsogon City Campus.

According to SorSU officials, the partnership intends to expand the school’s global reach and foster its international collaboration towards producing globally competitive leaders by providing opportunities and resources that surpass geographical boundaries to their students.

With this, the two institutions will provide collaborative trainings and knowledge transfer through internship programs in the fields of agriculture, agricultural technology, engineering, and others.

SorSU International Relations Office Director Vivien L. Chua said that the university is honored to forge a partnership with Dagam Farm as it will contribute to the efforts of the university towards internationalization.

“I am sure that Dagam Farm in South Korea would help introduce to our students the emerging agriculture trends as the ultimate driving force for economic growth and sustainable development of our country and the world at large,” the director said.

Meanwhile, Dagam Farm Chief Executive Officer Kang Chang Goog reiterated that the core of this partnership is within the goal of enhancing the development of the agricultural industry.

“We must cultivate future leaders who can continue this movement. You are all potential leaders who can leave a positive footprint in revitalizing agriculture and rural communities,” Kang stated.

The university stressed that this partnership does not only reflect the collaboration of the two institutions but also showcases the educational pursuits of the school with the global standards.
