The rapid global developments as well as the challenges and demands of a dynamically evolving global economy, the landscape of engineering education calls for a profound reimagining of engineering education in South Korea. The presentation will give an introduction to the dedicated efforts of South Korea’s Ministry of Education and KSEE in educating and nurturing the next generation of engineers, steering them towards a sustainable and innovative future.

As it is well known, the manufacturing sector of South Korea accounts for 27.5% of total GDP in Korea and will continue to depend much on the cutting edge of innovative technologies from different fields of engineering. With innovation as a driving force, engineering education in South Korea will continue its emphasis in fostering an environment that encourages curiosity and experimentation. By actively integrating emerging technologies and industries with cutting-edge research into the curriculum of education, students are inspired to explore new frontiers and develop groundbreaking solutions to address the societal needs and demands.

With a strong emphasis on creativity, critical thinking, and problem –solving, engineering programs have embraced a holistic approach to education that encourages students to think beyond the traditional disciplinary boundaries. This way, students will be equipped with the necessary skills, knowledge, and mindset to thrive in an ever-changing global context. In order to nurture Korean engineering students as global citizens, international collaboration is also an integral component of South Korea’s engineering education vision. There are exchange programs to send and to receive students, through which, students well gain global perspective that will prepare them to be more adaptable and culturally competent engineers in a highly interconnected world.
