The School of Information & Communication Engineering aims to cultivate engineers specializing in wired and wireless communication technology, communication network technology, multimedia information processing technology, and software technology, all of which are the backbone leading the future of the information age.

The core of Smart Phones, Smart Work, Smart Cities, and Smart Grids, which have been emerging as trends and attracted a great deal of attention from the public, is information and communication technology. Responding to this trend, the department provides an intense curriculum to foster global talents suited to intelligent society and the future of information society. We developed the consumer-focused education system by implementing large-scale national projects such as the BK21 Project, NURI Project, and others. Furthermore, the department has been focusing its efforts on fostering adaptability in industrial sites based on the reinforcement of education for theory and practical work, institutionalizing in-depth guidance for students through regular and frequent consultation to improve their career path and employment rate.
