Architecture is a profession where technology, ecology, philosophy, art and science combine to solve the problems of the built environment. The buildings we live and work in shape our experiences, our memories and the way we view the world. Homes, office buildings, opera houses, art galleries, schools and factories are all designed by architects. It is the role of the architect to analyze a client's needs and to design a building which fulfills these needs. The architect then documents the design and manages the construction process. The architectural engineer develops new technologies and materials to construct buildings.

Founded in 1952, the School of Architecture continues to make efforts to be a core architectural institute leading regional academic research and quality education open to the community. In 2002, the Department of Architecture was reorganized into the School of Architecture with a five-year Bachelor of Architecture program and a four-year Bachelor of Architectural Engineering program.

To achieve the goal, the school of Architecture provides an opportunity for students to understand the method of creating buildings and architectural environments through design and experiments. The objective is to develop creative, scientific, and future-oriented architect engineers with a professional and comprehensive overview in order to contribute to the creation of architecture culture and academic development of Korea.

There is a diverse and exciting range of career opportunities for architecture graduates. As well as a career in private architectural practice, career opportunities include: Architectural Design, Interior Design, Architectural and Urban planning, Construction, Structural/Mechanical Engineering, Public Authorities, Project management, Property Development, Research, Restoration and Conservation.

Architecture Major

The educational goal of the School of Architecture is to cultivate creative, and internationalized, professional architects who understand socio-cultural interconnections and the development of architectural technology, and have the ability to think in a comprehensive manner. Its aim is also to cultivate architects who can contribute to national development and social welfare through an in-depth study of the quality of human dwelling conditions in consideration of various cultures and values.

Architectural Engineering Major

Architectural Engineering helps students fulfill their roles as competent professionals who can design, construct, and manage safe and rational buildings and structures after graduation.
The Architectural Engineering Major intends to develop competitive talents in architectural environments at home and abroad. It pursues realistic architecture by studying engineering applications with a focus on curricula such as Architectural Construction, Architectural Structure, and Architectural Environment and Equipment.
