It is reported that all these 5 students are from the Preschool Education major (junior college level) of the College of Education at Qingdao Binhai University. After one year of study at PNUST, they obtained the Bachelor's Degree in Education. Among them, 4 students will further their studies and pursue master's degrees at universities such as Dong-A University and Pusan National University in South Korea.

The "3+1" Junior College to University Program jointly launched by Qingdao Binhai University and PNUST means that students first complete 3 years of junior college courses at Qingdao Binhai University, and then go to PNUST to study 1 year of undergraduate courses. After meeting the graduation requirements, they can obtain a South Korean bachelor's degree certificate, which is accredited by the Service Center for Scholarly Exchange (SCSC) of China.

In the future, Qingdao Binhai University will deepen its cooperation with PNUST, expand the international training channels for teachers and students of the Preschool Education major, and cultivate more high-level and international talents for the field of preschool education.
