About the School
In preparation for the information society of the future, the School of Information, Communications and Electronic Engineering is fostering the core talents required in the field of electronic engineering technology (EET), including cutting-edge information and communication technology (ICT) and semiconductors. To this end, we are committed to educating internationally competitive professionals in the advanced ICT and EET industries, the core fields of Korea. As a result, after graduation, our students become core engineers and play pivotal roles in various ICT and EET fields in Korea. Recently, the importance of our major has been increasingly emphasized as ICT is being applied to various converging fields of the emerging Fourth Industrial Revolution utilizing the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and artificial intelligence, and the semiconductor industry is developing significantly.
The major curriculum of the School of Information, Communications and Electronic Engineering is subdivided into the Network Communication Track, Mobile Media Communication Track, and Semiconductor System Engineering Track, providing students with specialized education by selecting the desired track. In addition to theoretical courses, we provide students with practical design courses such as comprehensive design (Capstone Design in Information and Communication Engineering, Capstone Design in Electronic Engineering, Comprehensive Design, and Comprehensive Design of Mobile Communication) and long-term field internship (working in a company related to the major for one semester).
