Kongju National University started as Kongju Teacher’s College in 1948 and became the only comprehensive university in Chungcheongnam-do in 1991. It is now the 9th largest among national and public universities in Korea (based on the number of freshmen) and has campuses in Gongju, Yesan, Cheonan and Sejong.

There are about 15,000 students at Kongju National University, and the entire faculty and staff are doing their best for them.

Kongju National University is growing into a major university representing Chungnam and Sejong regions.

The Kongju campus is located about 10 minutes away from the Government Complex. To help the development of Gongju and Sejong City, five colleges are being operated on this campus

(College of Education, College of Humanities and Social Sciences, College of Natural Sciences, College of Nursing & Health, and College of Art).

In addition, in the North Chungnam Industrial Belt, the College of Engineering on the Cheonan Campus is developing together with local industries.

Finally, in Naepo-Yesan, where the provincial government is located, the Yesan campus, which specialises in the agricultural-fishery-food field, is leading the future industry of the West Sea region.

Kongju National University has the educational philosophy of 'search for the truth', 'create value', and 'practice justice'.

Under this philosophy, we will nurture students who can develop humanity, creativity, and problem-solving skills while responding to rapid changes in the educational environment. We promise to create a competitive, student-centred university through curriculum innovation.

Believe in your dreams, passions and abilities! Kongju National University will be with you!

Thank you.
