Hyundai Motor is recruiting schools to participate in the 'Future Mobility School' program for the first semester of 2027.
The Future Mobility School is a student-led activity program developed by Hyundai Motor after it became the first private company to sign a memorandum of understanding with the Ministry of Education.
The program helps students grow into talent who will lead future mobility by learning about the development process of the mobility industry, as well as innovative technologies such as autonomous driving and robotics.
Since its inception in 2016, the program has been operated at 3,280 schools worldwide, including domestic elementary and middle schools as well as overseas schools, nurturing the future mobility dreams of a total of over 134,000 students.
Schools wishing to participate in the Future Mobility School for the first semester of 2027 can apply from the 16th until December 11 by using the link within the Naver Future Mobility School cafe.
The curriculum consists of an elementary program for grades 4 through 6 and regular and short-term programs for middle school students. It provides classes that allow students to preview changes in the future mobility environment on various topics according to the curriculum.
The theme for the elementary program in the first semester of 2027 has been set as 'A Sustainable Future Life Created by Future Mobility.' The regular middle school program will be conducted under the theme 'Future Lifestyle with Mobility,' and the short-term middle school program will focus on 'Future Mobility Enhanced by Robotics.'
Ji Sung-won, head of brand marketing at Hyundai Motor, said, "In this Future Mobility School, we aim to provide classes that allow students to imagine in advance the changes in the future mobility environment through advanced technologies such as autonomous driving and robotics."
He added, "We will continue to support the creation of a creative and cultural foundation so that adolescents can take an interest in future technologies and explore their career paths."
Meanwhile, Hyundai Motor recently introduced the Future Mobility School to local schools in France for the first time in Europe. Marking the 140th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Korea and France, this initiative is expected to expand educational exchanges between the two countries while helping French adolescents broaden their understanding of the future mobility industry and technological changes.
