SKKU launched the University College in 2005 to systematically promote general and basic education with a primary focus on liberal arts education and primary subjects. Liberal arts education is the main intellectual preparation for students to successfully discover their prefered study field in the future, so they can excel academically and build professional skills through this well-tuned educational process.
The University College provides a curriculum that seeks to empower the student’s academic abilities to think, speak, and write with precision and depth, as well as their capacity to perceive and expose false reasoning.
Furthermore, the University College provides various academic services and activities for first-year students to develop creative thinking and explore suitable paths at the next level, as well as helping first-year students to live a vivid and academic school life that is unique from their previous educational experiences.
Additionally, the University College has a respected mentoring system, called Sungkyun Mentor, which provides academic and individual counseling services to help students acclimatize to school life.
