Daegu Haany University's Department of Korean Medicine announced Friday that it received 15.06 million won ($11,200) in department development funds from nine head directors of Oegatsip Korean Medicine Clinic.

The donors operate Oegatsip Korean Medicine Clinic branches across the country, including in Anseong, Pyeongtaek and Jecheon.

Many are graduates of the university's Korean medicine department who have maintained ties with their alma mater since graduation, coming together to support the education of current students and the department's growth.

The funds will go toward department events, practical training and other educational activities aimed at improving the learning environment and strengthening students' professional competencies.

"The Department of Korean Medicine plans to further strengthen its network with alumni and the local community, and to expand various exchange and cooperation programs so that alumni's experience and interest can translate into education and growth for current students," a university official said.
