47 students that enrolled in 2006 at Shenyang Polytechnic College, the first college to have established a "safety secretary" major in northeast China, will graduate this year.
The "safety secretary" major is mostly based on a "police taekwondo" major set up by universities in South Korea. Students can receive various certifications including a Chinese Martial Arts certificate, a driver's license and a security certification.
Wang Yimin, director of the department of basic courses of the college, stated that whether in corporate or private affairs, the protection of peoples' lives and property are important points to consider. As long as the protected party is threatened, a bodyguard can intervene.
The major covers courses including automobile operation technique/driving skills, criminal psychology, tackling and grappling skills, practical martial arts, shorthand note-taking, emergency care, security investigation, the practice of public relations and criminal law.
