Dept. of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering
Introducing our department.
To prepare for the 4th industrial revolution in the shipbuilding/maritime field, the department aims to educate the knowledge and technology required for environmentally riendly/smart ships and marine plant systems, and based on this, to train advanced human resources needed in industry-academia-government research and development of the world's best technology.
The program operates a curriculum that provides selective learning and practical training for majors in subdivided fields, as well as basic skills as engineers, with faculty members with more than 10 years of field experience to produce fusion-type human resources with a focus on practical work.
In addition, we operate programs to strengthen students' employability skills, such as various comparative science special lecture programs and on-site practical training.
Educational Goals
- Education in basic knowledge of engineering and natural science
- Cultivate individuals who can creatively solve practical problems based on sufficient understanding and insight into the basic knowledge related to their major.
- Cultivate active human resources who can respond to the age of internationalization based on a sense of morality and responsibility.
