The Institute of Engineering was established on September 30,
2022 by expanding and reorganizing the Institute of Industrial Technology.
The Institute of Engineering was established to promote the development of engineering technology through
industry-academia cooperation and academic and research activities, to establish industrial policies in Seoul,
and to contribute to the development of national industries. The Institute of Engineering has 10 centers,
and research activities are actively carried out to solve engineering problems arising from the urban industry.
It consists of excellent researchers with high academic excellence and field experience, with about 80 professors,
including engineering colleges, participating as full-time researchers.
In the era of the 4th industrial revolution, a convergence and complex research system that combines not only traditional
engineering but also artificial intelligence and big data is being established, and solutions to complex problems in the urban
industry are being studied in various ways. In addition, various academic events such as the Seoul-Shanghai Forum are held to
provide a venue for domestic and foreign scholars and experts to exchange and discuss new theories and experiences as well as
school researchers to solve these problems.
The Institute of Engineering supports many small and medium-sized enterprises in Seoul, and will work closely with Seoul
Facilities Corporation, Seoul Transportation Corporation, Seoul Housing and Urbanism Corporation, Seoul Energy Corporation,
Seoul Water Regeneration Facility Corporation, and Agricultural and Fishery Food Corporation.
