- Graduate school classes, which started in September, are conducted in a self-directed learning style, unlike undergraduate classes, and are conducted by selecting topics on your own, conducting research, and presenting them.
- Graduate schools for working professionals are operated in a way that allows students to work during the week and attend classes on weekends. The class format is also composed of discussions, individual studies, and preparing reports and presentation materials, so it is not too difficult to combine with work.
- Although it has only been a month, I plan to familiarize myself with research papers by learning how to search for them, review them, and pre-select my paper topics for next year to organize relevant research papers.
The first semester started on September 4th, and a month has passed.
Due to the coronavirus, I am still not able to go to school, and I am taking classes through online and recorded lectures, so I still don't feel real. Today, I'm going to leave a review? after a month of opening.
Personally, the difference in teaching methods from undergraduate days is the self-directed learning style. In my undergraduate days, I understood and studied the content explained in the textbook, but in graduate school, the teaching method is to choose a topic, share each other's opinions, and discuss. Classes are conducted through a method of creating presentation materials through research and giving presentations, followed by receiving feedback from the professor. That's why there is a textbook, but it's not used that often.
And being the first semester, they also explain how to review papers and write papers, and teach how to use external materials such as newspaper articles.
Summarizing the above,
- An environment where you choose a topic and study on your own
- There are many cases where you have to prepare reports and presentation materials.
- There are many cases where you use external materials such as papers, articles, and research data.
This seems to be the case.

And because it is a special graduate school, it is definitely different from general graduate schools where people actually work full-time.
Since I work on weekdays and only take classes on weekends, it seems that they are generally considerate of working people in their evaluations and classes. General graduate school reviews mention lab hell, research hell, etc., but special graduate schools are at a level where there is no great difficulty in combining work with classes, such as discussions in class, individual study, and preparation of reports and presentation materials. (Of course, it's only been a month, so I don't know what will happen in the future.)
My goal is to become familiar with papers for now!
After all, papers themselves are not familiar documents, and I think I need to see more about how to search, review, etc.
It's still next year, but I'm going to try to define a paper topic in advance and organize it around related papers.
Anyway, the midterm exam is only a month away.. I have no idea how to prepare for the exam ㅠ_ㅠ (I haven't even been to school yet...ㅎㅎ.....)
