Vision & History

  • Hanyang University College of Engineering, in the midst of colonialism and war, initiated Korea‘s first private engineering colleage, planting the seeds of Korea’s dreams. The spirit of technology that has cultivated talented people to serve the nation has spurred hope and spread the branches of growth amidst any challenges.

    In addition, it has become a ‘growth engine of Korea’, with beautiful flowers blooming with energy, constant
    challenge and growth. Now, Hanyang University College of Engineering is making another leap forward towards
    world-class university. The future of Hanyang will become another part of history that will open Korea's future.
