Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital Selected as a First-term Certified Research-driven Hospital for 2025
Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital Selected as a First-term Certified Research-driven Hospital for 2025 Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital Selected as a First-term Certified Research-driven Hospital for 2025 Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital, affiliated with the College of Medicine, has been selected as a First-term Certified Research-driven Hospital for 2025 by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, as announced on Wednesday, March 26, 2025. The certification will remain valid for three years, until March 31, 2028. Introduced in 2013, the Research-driven Hospital program designates hospitals to lead research and development as well as technology commercialization based on their clinical expertise. Following a revision of the relevant law in July last year, the program was restructured from a “designation-based system” to a “certification-based system,” under which certification is granted only to hospitals with proven research capabilities. In the recent certification evaluation, Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital was recognized for its strong research capabilities, along with the following achievements: a global standard of research systems and personnel; sustainable research support governance; proven capacity to conduct translational and clinical research; competitiveness in specialized, priority research areas; and the establishment of an industry-academia-research-hospital network linked to M-Valley and G-Valley. As a result, Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital is now eligible to apply for the Research-driven Hospital R&D Project and expected to play a leading role at the center of the bio-health research ecosystem. Since 2021, Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital has laid the groundwork for its research-driven hospital certification by successfully securing a series of major national projects from the Ministry of Science and ICT, the National Research Foundation of Korea, the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and the Korea Health Industry Development Institute. In 2022, the hospital was selected for the ER Bio Core Facility Establishment Project led by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Research Foundation of Korea. This was followed by its designation as the host institution for the UroGyn Efficacy Evaluation Center in 2023, the National Bio Integrated Big Data Establishment Project in 2024, and the Open Lab Operation Project in 2025, all sponsored by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Korea Health Industry Development Institute. Based on these achievements, the hospital successfully obtained the research-driven hospital certification this year. Building on the outstanding capabilities of Ewha Womans University Medical Center, including the Mokdong Hospital, the university is committed to further strengthening its efforts to establish a world-class research environment, enhance its competitiveness, and realize the vision of “Ewha leading the era of great transformation through inclusive innovation.”
