About University

At the heart of Ulsan, Korea’s leading high-tech industrial city, Ulsan College is a university that is driving change in domestic and international industrial fields through practice-oriented education and customized talent development for businesses. Since its establishment in 1970, the university has grown alongside the Ulsan region for over half a century, taking pride in being the “real engine of Korea’s industrial development.” The main campus is located in Nam-gu, Ulsan Metropolitan City, and a specialized second campus focused on advanced materials and engineering is also operated, providing a space where theory, practice, and future innovative technologies converge. Ulsan College’s greatest distinction lies in its close industry-academia cooperation network with global companies such as Hyundai Motor Company and Hyundai Heavy Industries. From its early days, the university has operated practical curricula reflecting the needs of local industries, achieving remarkable results with over 58% of graduates securing employment at major corporations and public institutions. In particular, engineering departments such as automotive, shipbuilding, mechanical, electrical, new materials, and chemical engineering are directly linked to Ulsan’s core industries, allowing students to gain diverse hands-on experience through field training, internships, and project participation during their studies. Recently, majors aligned with current trends—such as Global Business, Design, Healthcare, and IT Convergence—have also been established, focusing on nurturing talent that combines technology and creativity. This practice-oriented education is Ulsan College’s strong competitive edge, setting it apart from other universities. Ulsan College has produced numerous social leaders and experts. Alumni active in various fields—including CEOs of Korea’s leading companies such as Hyundai Motor Company, Samsung Heavy Industries, and SK hynix, as well as key figures in administration, politics, and the public sector, and those in the arts, media, and sports—are enhancing the university’s reputation. For example, Lee Dong-seok, CEO of Hyundai Motor Company; Park Sung-wook, former Vice Chairman of SK hynix; and Park Ki-chul, President of the World-OKTA, are among the global industry leaders who graduated from here. In this way, Ulsan College is recognized as a cradle for nurturing key players in Korea’s industrial development beyond Ulsan, leading social influence and real change. Support for international students is also among the best in the industry.
