AI and big data analysis is known as the core technology for Industry4.0. As a result, there are strong demands for qualified AI(Artificial Intelligence) specialists globally. That is why Endicott College of International Studies (ECIS) of Woosong University is currently running a technology studies department with a major in software innovation and data science. Early next year, there are also plans to open a research institute (4Lab Research Institute) to enhance industry application-based research capability in AI and big data. Students participating in our Master’s of Engineering in Artificial Intelligence will be able to take full advantage of the research institute.

The Graduate School of Industrial Technology is performing the Ministry of Commerce, Industry, and Energy-supported industrial-academic cooperation projects in e-business. On top of this, we have been designated to carry out special projects for which the Ministry of Information and Communication provides equipment to our information technology-related departments. Our state-of-the-art research and experiment equipment and one of the best learning environments in Korea are also capitalized onto producing first-class professionals equipped not only with creative research ability but also with leadership by conducting joint research with experts from businesses, outside research institutes, and the government, as well as by bringing those experts up-to-date on recent theories and applications required by knowledge-based industries.
