Hankyong National University: the applicant's brief

6 findings
  1. The short answer

    Hankyong National University is a public university in South Korea, located in Anseong in Gyeonggi Province. It suits students who want a national university with subject strengths in environmental engineering, agricultural science, biotechnology, information technology, and computer engineering.

  2. What you can study

    Study options centre on environmental engineering, agricultural science, biotechnology, information technology, and computer engineering. It is a public national university rather than a specialist college, but a fuller programme catalogue is still to be confirmed on the university’s official site.

  3. Getting in

    International applicants should check the university’s official website for the current application steps, required documents, deadlines, and whether the programme they want is open to overseas students. The admissions office is the place to confirm entry requirements and any language or visa-related conditions before applying.

  4. What it costs

    Tuition is charged in KRW, but the university does not publish a fee range here; confirm the current tuition with its admissions office. Living costs will depend on housing, transport, and daily spending in Anseong and nearby Seoul-area travel.

  5. Coming from abroad

    The language of instruction is not published, so confirm this for the programme you want before applying. Also check whether the course is open to international students, what documents are required, how tuition is paid, and what support is available after arrival.

  6. How it compares

    South Korea has 245 universities, so Hankyong National University sits in a large higher-education system. Its position as the only national university in Gyeonggi Province gives it a clear regional identity, and its strongest draw is its focus on environment, agriculture, biotechnology, and computing fields.
