Master in Smart Factory(Yangsan Campus)

Haeundae-gu, South Korea Taught in English Open to international students

About the Program

Smart Factory is a master's program offered by Youngsan University, administered from its Haeundae-gu base in South Korea and taught in English over two years, with instruction connected to the university's Yangsan Campus location. The discipline focuses on the technologies and systems used to automate and optimize manufacturing, including industrial robotics, the Internet of Things, data analytics for production lines, and the integration of digital control systems into factory operations. Students typically study how sensors, software, and automated machinery work together to improve efficiency, quality control, and safety on the factory floor. Graduates from this field often pursue careers as manufacturing engineers, automation specialists, production systems analysts, or process improvement consultants for companies in electronics, automotive, and heavy industry manufacturing. Others move into roles managing the integration of new digital technologies into existing factories, or into research positions developing the next generation of automated production systems. Given South Korea's strength in electronics and automobile manufacturing, this discipline connects directly to industries central to the national economy. New cohorts begin in March and September, and the program's English-medium instruction is designed to accommodate an international student body interested in industrial technology. Students studying Smart Factory concepts typically combine engineering fundamentals with hands-on exposure to automated systems, preparing them for roles that require both technical knowledge and an understanding of how modern manufacturing operations are organized and managed across increasingly connected production environments.
