Department of Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineering

Department of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineering

The Department of Refrigeration Engineering was established in 1988, and then was reorganized as the Department of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning in 2007. Refrigeration engineering plays important role in manufacturing and production processes including food preservation technologies (processing, freezing, storage and transportation) to provide sufficient quantities to feed growing population. Air Conditioning Engineering has been applied to provide and maintain controlled environment in building such as office, house, and factory (Korea leads the world in small air conditioner exports), also for other large structures such as tunnels. In the aviation fields, its application includes human-occupied spaces, aircraft's equipment operation, satellites and space station. It also presents in manufacturing and fabrication technology and pharmaceutical processes to provide controlled atmosphere conditions.

The educational goal of the Department of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineering is to cultivate potential and talented human resources who develop ideas in these fields of engineering. The faculty members teach and train students in the design of refrigeration and air conditioning systems, design of refrigeration plants including chemical processes and food storages, design of energy-saving machines and mechanical systems including heat exchangers, effective use of energy including natural and unused energy, and fundamental theoretical and applications of engineering. The Department offers students the best conditions in relation with their study and discipline and life on campus. In addition, the Department aims to cultivate engineers and researchers who are able to contribute to the national development of science, engineering, and industry in the field of refrigeration and air conditioning and other related fields upon graduation.

Graduates may seek careers in Korea and overseas, in engineering firms, construction companies, industrial refrigeration firms, marine and transportation refrigeration companies, public enterprises, automobile firms, and in civil service.
