Humanities and Social Sciences Campus (Seoul)The deep roots of the University are so strongly entwined with Seoul that we cannot describe the University in isolation from the city. Like the University, Seoul, the heart of Korea, is the center of Korea’s remarkable economic growth over the past 40 years with its old unique tradition and newly innovated modernity. As the cultural, economic, and political center of the nation, Seoul provides infinite opportunities for research. Located on the original Sungkyunkwan site, the Humanities and Social Sciences Campus is spread over a hill looking down on Jongmyo Royal Shrine, which has been designated by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage Site. The original site of the Old Sungkyunkwan was preserved for the Humanities and Social Sciences Campus, while the expanding science programs were moved to a new campus in Suwon.

Natural Sciences Campus (Suwon)The University’s modern Natural Sciences Campus was established in 1978. This campus is situated 45km away from Seoul, on a 250-acre site, and it takes approximately 1~1.5 hours to commute between two campuses. When the new campus was built in Suwon, the idea of a dual campus system was revolutionary in Korean higher education; this system remains unique in Korea. Suwon is one of the cities which preserve the traditional beauty of the Joseon era (1392~1910), but it now also flourishes as a center for business, education and economic research, thanks to its proximity to major industrial complexes such as Suwon SAMSUNG industrial complex.
