CWNU Hits Their Stride in Establish of Medical School

The CWNU spurs to establish a medical school which specializes in industrial medicine. Establishing a medical school has been considered a long-cherished ambition of Changwon city and CWNU for over twenty years. CWNU announced continuing promotion activities such as a campaign to obtain signatures of citizens or to consolidating publicity activities for domestic and foreign awareness.

Importantly, Changwon Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) made a recommendation to the Government for establishing a medical school as an election pledge of candidates who are running for the National Assembly of Changwon city. As a recommendation of CCCI, Changwon city and Gyungnam Area are heavy industry region such as machining, shipbuilding and automobile manufacturing. There are about 170,000 companies and 950,000 workers. For this reason, the Industrial Accident Rate for 2010 was 0.85%, higher than the national average about 0.69%. Also the number of industrial disaster victims is increasing every year. There were 96,000 people who suffered from industrial accident s in 2008 but the number increased to 98,000 in 2010. Therefore, an urgent plan to educate people who specialize in medical treatment of industrial accidents is needed.

Changwon is only large city that don¡¯t have an upper hospital complex overseen by the municipal government. Most of all Changwon has 11 million people but still live lacks sufficient medical care infrastructure such as a dental school, college of pharmacy or oriental medicine. This means the number of hospitals and doctors is too low. CCCI pointed out that knowledge service, medical treatment, finance, education, concentration in the capital area is becoming more pronounced. It would be hard to stop this concentration. CCCI insists candidates make an election pledge that establishes a medical school.

There are several essential reasons for establishing a medical school by CWNU. First, CWNU has been focused on reinforcing manpower of medical businesses that are linked with the community. Second, CWNU is ideal for the specialized field of indutrial medicine and for the establishment of a medical school. Finally, it would be easy to handle a hospital affiliated with CWNU as Changwon hospital of industrial accident is managed by Korea Workers¡¯ Compensation & Welfare Service.
