During his visit to KU, S. Song was introduced to the university, its study programs, and ongoing scientific research. Associate Professor Dr. Laura Šaltytė-Vaisiauskė, Vice-Rector for Science and Innovation, sees great potential in strengthening and expanding the cooperation between KU and South Korean higher education institutions in the field of maritime energy.
