Daegu National University of Education, commonly abbreviated as Daegu-gyodae (Korean: 대구교대) in Korean, is one of the National Universities of Education which provides training courses for preliminary teachers in the public primary schools of South Korea.
Founded in 1950, DNUE was previously called Daegu Normal School. Its first president was Kim Young-gi (Korean: 김영기). In 1963, it was renamed Daegu Gyoyuk Dae. It concentrated on primary school education, not including secondary school courses. Its most recent name change was in 1993, when the school adopted the name it uses today. Nam Seung-in (Korean: 남승인) has been its president since 2011. About 85 instructors are employed by the university.
History
[edit]Daegu National University of Education (DNUE) opened as Daegu Normal School in 1950, though its origins can be traced back to 1923, when Daegu Sabeom Haggyo (大邱師範學敎, 大邱师范学校) was established by the Japanese Government-General of Korea for training school instructors.
The university has always been under national control. It officially began as Daegu Normal School (대구사범학교) in 1950. In 1962, it was briefly attached to Kyungpook National University as a two-year college, but the institutions were separated again the following year. It became a four-year college in 1982 and a university in 1993. The graduate school was established in November 1995.
The university has had various name changes to gratify social needs.
