Since its establishment in 1980, our university has grown along with Gumi, the birthplace of Korea's electronics industry, into a national industrial complex that has emerged as a world-class leader in IT industries. It has established itself as Korea's only engineering-centered specialized national university by focusing on ways to nurture outstanding engineering talents who have led Korea's industrialization for the past 40 years.
Kumoh National Institute of Technology is a small but strong university. With the beginning of the 4th industrial revolution era, we are opening a new chapter in the future of university education, with the mobility required to meet all obstacles in the midst of a great transformation that changes not only the industrial landscape and jobs, but also the way of life. It is attracting attention as a challenge ahead of the times, such as establishing the world’s first 5G+ test network, Korea’s first undergraduate and graduate education programs in the smart factory field, establishing a comprehensive nurturing system that encompasses research, industry-university cooperation and technology commercialization, and promoting education using the metaverse.
