A middle school in Sani-myeon, Haenam-gun, Jeollanam-do, with 43 college students. On the tenth, small cars which might be exhausting to see have been positioned on the classroom desks right here. It was a wind-powered automotive assembled by the college students themselves.
As the automotive moved, college students’ questions adopted. There have been many questions on how wind energy was used to generate electrical energy and the way the vitality created moved the automotive. It was college students from Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST) who answered.
GIST held the “2026 Science Camp to Visit GIST” at Haenam Sani Middle School on the tenth. It is designed to offer younger folks in cities and villages with comparatively few alternatives to expertise science and expertise straight.
On today, 5 college students from the GIST scholar social contribution group “Fium” performed profession mentoring and science expertise applications for 43 college students from all industrial middle faculties.
Seol Bo-min, a scholar who made wind-charging cars with college students, is making an actual self-made automotive at GIST’s self-made automotive membership “G-BungE.” He is about to take part in the ‘Baja Student Korea 2026’ held this month.
Based on his expertise in designing and manufacturing cars, Seol defined the rules of wind energy technology and driving cars at the eye degree of middle school college students. Students from the mountains assembled their very own kits, performed driving experiments, and realized the rules of renewable vitality and carbon neutrality.

GIST’s Visiting Science Camp is a social contribution program that gives mentoring for school college students, particular lectures for professors, and science experiences by visiting faculties with comparatively few alternatives to expertise science tradition.
We hope that schooling and science and tradition expertise alternatives will function a possibility for brand spanking new mental stimulation and profession exploration for native college students who’ve comparatively few alternatives, mentioned Lee Eun-ji, head of GIST’s exterior cooperation division. “We will continue to run science camps to help more students dream of a broad world and discover their potential through science.”
