[Seminar] Administrative and Education Reform under the Trump Administration in the United States and Its Implications for Korea

The seminar “The Trump Administration’s Administrative and Education Reforms in the United States and Implications for Korea” was successfully held.

This seminar provided an opportunity to explore ways to reform government structure and restructure education governance, focusing on regulatory innovation and stronger decentralization, through case studies of administrative and education reforms under the Trump administration in the United States. In particular, it was a meaningful discussion on practical solutions for the administrative efficiency and educational autonomy needed in our society, centered on the establishment of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and the proposal to abolish the Department of Education.

Thank you to everyone who participated.
