Kyung Hee Cyber University Leads Higher Education Innovation with AI-Powered Content

The Professor Is AI — Kyung Hee Cyber University's New Model for Online Higher Education

Consistency is one of the hardest things to achieve in online education. Lecture quality can vary depending on the instructor's condition, recording environment, or how quickly content gets updated. Kyung Hee Cyber University is addressing this challenge head-on — with AI Human technology at the center of a new initiative launching in the second semester of 2025.

The Challenge: Inconsistency and Production Limits in Online Lectures

Traditional online lectures require professors to record themselves on camera — and whenever content changes or new case studies emerge, re-recording is necessary. This creates inevitable variation in quality and delivery across instructors. Producing multilingual content for global learners adds another layer of complexity that most institutions simply can't manage at scale.

The Solution: Build an AI Professor from the Real Professor's Script

Using DeepBrain AI's AI Human technology, Kyung Hee Cyber University developed virtual professors modeled after their actual faculty. Input the lecture script, and the AI professor delivers it on screen with natural expression and movement — no re-recording required. Content can be updated quickly to reflect the latest theories and real-world cases, maintaining consistent quality across every session.

Professor Lee Ju-min of the Marketing & Leadership Management department introduced AI Human lectures for his course on the Fourth Industrial Revolution and Smart Management. He noted that "AI-based content can be extended into multiple languages, opening up the possibility of global educational content." Professor Lee Jun-yeop similarly remade his Introduction to Management course using the AI professor format, emphasizing that it "raises student engagement and expands the diversity and flexibility of the curriculum."

Looking ahead, the university plans to develop interactive learning features — including personalized feedback on assignments, learning diagnostics, and AI-powered Q&A.

The Result: A First for Higher Education, A New Paradigm for Online Learning

Kim Eui-sin, Director of the Teaching and Learning Support Center, described the initiative as "the first attempt of its kind among educational institutions — not merely a new tool, but a new paradigm for reflecting on the essence of education and designing its future."

Consistent lecture quality, rapid content updates, and global scalability — Kyung Hee Cyber University's AI Human lecture initiative points to where online higher education is headed.
