Sejong University (á¦ðóÓÞùÊÎè; ¼¼Á¾´ëÇб³) is a private university located in Seoul, Republic of Korea. The history of Sejong University dates to 1940 when a trust established the Kyung Sung Humanities Institute. In 1978, the academy was named Sejong University in honor of Sejong the Great, the fourth king of the Chosun Dynasty and creator of the Korean alphabet Hangeul. The history of Sejong University began in May 1940 when the Kyung Sung Humanities Institute was founded by Dr. Youngha Choo. In 1947 this institute grew into the Seoul Women Teachers' Institute, with Dr. Choo as its first Director; the following year it was reorganized and became a junior college. In 1954 this school became Soodo Women Teachers' College. This college became a four-year institution in 1961 and in 1962 moved to its present campus in Kunja-dong. In 1966 the Graduate School was established. In 1973 The Soodo Museum (now Sejong University Museum), established to house the founders' collection of Korean antiquities, opened its doors to the public. In 1979 Soodo Women Teachers' College changed its name to Sejong College and admitted male undergraduates for the first time. In October 1987 Sejong College grew into Sejong University, consisting of five colleges with an enrollment of 6,000 students. In 1996, Dr. Choo Myung-Gun became Chairman of the Board of Trustees. Since that time the university has steadily expanded its academic programs and facilities. That year saw the establishment of two new graduate schools (the Graduate School of Information and Communication and the Graduate School of Education) and four new engineering departments (Electronic Engineering, Architectural Engineering, Civil Engineering, and the evening division of Computer Engineering), as well as a Ph.D. program in Hotel Management and master's programs in Public Administration, Applied Statistics, and Computer Engineering. Total enrollment rose to over 7,000 by the fall semester of 1997 and since then enrollment has increased by about 1,000 new students each year. In 1998 a College of Tourism and a department of Biological Engineering were founded. Construction began on five new buildings, including the Library, the Chapel, and the engineering laboratories. In 1999 three new graduate schools were added: Software Engineering, Science and Technology, and Performance Art Administration. A department of Materials Engineering was established. As a result of a cooperative agreement with Lockheed Martin Aerospace, the Sejong-Lockheed Martin Aerospace Research Center was founded to promote the development of the Korean aerospace industry, and similar agreements to cooperate in the development of science and technology were made with Hanaro Communication, Hansol PCS, Onse Communication, and Prime Company. In 2000 the Graduate Schools of Film Art and Techno Design were founded; the Graduate School of Business Administration became the Graduate School of Global Business Administration; the College of Tourism became the College of Hotels and Tourism.vThe new Library opened, housing more than 400,000 volumes; it is the first WTO library in Korea. In 2001 a collaborative relationship was established with the Korea Science and Culture Foundation. Two new programs taught entirely in English opened: an M.A program in Asian Studies, and a Global M.B.A. program operated jointly by Sejong University and Syracuse University in the United States. In January 2002 a University Development Advisory Board, composed of the CEOs of 30 major Korean firms, was founded to strengthen the university's ties to industry. In 2002 The education Reform Deliberation Commission officially awarded Sejong University for successfully restructuring and renovating university. In 2004 The Ministry of Education&Human Resources Development recognized Sejong university for excellence in promoting originality, innovation, and academic achievement. In 2007 The Graduate School of Business received certification from the Association of Advanced Collegiate Schools of Business. Although the current campus is not so big, it has about 13,000 students and 513 academic staff (2010). In 2010 Sejong university stated its intention to be ranked as one of the Global top 100 Universities in its Vision for 2020. (Main reference: The site of "Wikipedia")
