About the Program

This program at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) sits within the university's engineering division as a general, integrated engineering track rather than a single named specialization. Students admitted to this track typically follow a broad first-year curriculum covering mathematics, physics, chemistry, and introductory engineering principles common to POSTECH's various engineering departments, such as mechanical, electrical, chemical, computer science, and materials engineering. This shared foundation is designed to give students a wide view of engineering disciplines before they choose a specific department to major in, allowing decisions about specialization to be informed by direct exposure to different fields rather than made before arriving on campus. Coursework during this period emphasizes core scientific and mathematical skills, problem-solving, and engineering fundamentals, along with introductory design or laboratory work that exposes students to the practical side of engineering study. Because POSTECH is a research-focused university, students in this track often have opportunities to explore different laboratories and faculty research areas as part of choosing their eventual specialization. The bachelor's coursework is delivered in English, based in Nam-gu, South Korea, and completed over four years, with a spring and fall intake structure and a current intake planned for 2027. Graduates of the broader engineering program, once specialized, are prepared for careers across manufacturing, technology, research, and industry, depending on the department chosen. This track suits students who are confident they want to study engineering but have not yet settled on a specific discipline, giving them time and exposure before committing to a specialized major.
