Seoul National University of Science and Technology (abbreviated SeoulTech) is a national university located in Nowon-gu, Seoul, South Korea.
Seoul National University of Science and Technology originated from Public Eoeudong Vocational Continuing School. [3] Later the school was re-organized as Gyeongseong Public Industrial School, Gyeonggi Technical College, and Seoul National University of Technology before it was finally reborn as Seoul National University of Science and Technology in September 2010 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of its foundation. The institution is also known as 'Seoultech'.
Today Seoultech is a large and comprehensive university consisting of six colleges, 23 departments, seven graduate schools and a student enrolment of 11,500 people in a spacious campus of 508,690 square meters (124 acres). [4] This is the fifth-largest campus in the universities of Seoul. The campus, formerly occupied by the colleges of engineering of Seoul National University, [5] is in Nowon-gu in the northern part of Seoul. Seoul National University of Science and Technology was ranked second in South Korea and 23rd in Asia in field of focused university in the 2015 by Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) [6] [7] and ranked 15th in South Korea in the field of Science and Engineering in 2015 by Korea Economic Daily (한국경제신문).

The library at Seoul National University of Science and Technology has been operational since the foundation of Eoeudong Public Vocational Continuing School in April 1910. Today, the Library has 600,987 volumes, 11,928 e-books, 23,259 audiovisual materials, and 446 periodicals and academic journals published domestically and abroad. [9]
The Central Library building, completed at the end of 2004, consists of three stories with an area of 9,281 m2 (2,807 pyeong). The first floor houses the library office, seminar rooms, Western archive, and information processing center. The second floor is occupied with Eastern archives and references, periodicals, and an academic journal room. The third floor houses a multimedia room, group study room, and reading room. The annex to Central Library, remodelled in 2011, is a building with an area of 4,896.25 m2 (1,400 pyeong) that is equipped with a reference room, reference room for western books, room for study groups, notebook computer reading room and general reading room. The library has collected academic research works of the professors and the students for the past 100 years.
Aside from the library there is also an Information and Computer Center; a Press and Broadcasting Center; a General Laboratory Building; a Business Incubation Center; an Educational Equipment Management & Technical Support Center; and an International Office/ Centre for International Exchange. Finally, there is an Institute for Language Education and Research staffed by twenty native-speaking English instructors.
About half of the student body benefit from a scholarship program which offers education at a comparatively low cost. In 2015, about 6,000 of 11,500 students benefited from scholarship. [10] The school's current tuition only amounts to 40% of an average private university's costs and 80% of tuition fees charged by other national universities. In 2014, 47% of tuition was reused for scholarships. Seoultech also has a number of funded international cooperation programs, and two joint degree programs with Northumbria University in the United Kingdom.
The Institute for Language Education and Research (ILER) [11] provides a variety of language programs to serve the university's English, Korean, Chinese and Japanese learning needs. There are currently 26 full-time faculty positions. [12] The ILER has a dedicated language center building which houses all needed facilities: professors' offices, administration offices, conference hall, conversation classrooms with round tables, etc. The ILER is a developing PLC (Professional Learning Community), focused on modernizing curriculum, expanding opportunities for research and publication, and fostering a spirit of intercultural exchange.
In March 2014, the university's Public Relations Office held its first Symbolic Committee to determine its symbolism. Following the first questionnaire for teachers and faculty members in April 2013, we conducted a second questionnaire involving 12,807 undergraduate and graduate students in June 2013 in order to enact the symbol of university. The second questionnaire for undergraduate and graduate students who answered 91% of the total enrollment was Daesanbang, Sycamore, and Symbolic Animals. Haitai won the most votes. [1]
In 2021, Seoul National University of Science and Technology ranked 51-100 globally in Petroleum Engineering field, 200-240 globally in Art and Design field, and 401-450 globally in Electrical and Electronic Engineering based on QS Subject Ranking. [13]
