Advancing Beyond Architectural Boundaries: Securing Future Growth in the Era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution

In response to the rapidly evolving landscape of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, our department continues to drive innovation through cutting-edge technology and interdisciplinary education. We aim to foster hyperconnected, convergent talent—individuals capable of identifying and solving transformative challenges independently. With a flexible and sustainable ecosystem for education, research, and industry-academic collaboration, we are working toward our goal of joining the World’s Top 20 institutions in architectural engineering. Through these efforts, we strive to ensure that architecture remains a vital engine of national growth.

Cultivating Global First-Movers through Interdisciplinary Architectural Education

Our department is actively developing diverse academic programs tailored to the hyperconnected era, while aggressively promoting interdisciplinary research that transcends traditional academic boundaries. We are also building robust educational and research platforms that encourage student-driven innovation, real-world problem-solving, and entrepreneurial ventures. Through this foundation, we are nurturing global First-Movers who will lead the architectural field into the future.

Guided by Hanyang University's founding spirit of “Love in Deed and Truth,” the Department and Graduate School of Architectural Engineering remain dedicated to cultivating top-tier professionals who represent Korea’s architectural excellence and to advancing cutting-edge technologies that shape the future of architectural engineering. We sincerely appreciate your continued support and encouragement. Thank you.
