Visit UNIST Gamak Pond UNIST Central Research Facilities(UCRF) Long before UNIST Campus came about in this area, a village called 'Gamakmotan' was here, with its name derived from Gamak Pond which means ‘a pond with black soil.’ With its surface area of 22,888㎡, Gamak Pond is undoubtedly the center and the most remarkable landmark on the campus that can be seen from any building on campus. The view of the five fountains beautifully spouting its energy into the sky is enough to catch the attention of the by passers. UNIST Central Research Facilities (UCRF) was established in 2009 for the purpose of enhancing the research abilities of UNIST through the sharing of expensive equipment, the promotion of interdisciplinary studies, and the establishment of a network of professionals specialized in analysis and instrumentation. The Garden of Nobel The UCRF possesses facilities fundamental to academic research including an analysis lab, clean room, machine shop, enviromental analysis lab, UNIST - Olympus Biomed Imaging Center(UOBC), In Vivo Research Center(IVRC) and UNIST Radiation Safety Lab. ˙ Dr. Richard Timothy Hunt(2011), Dr. Konstantin Novoselov(2011), ˙ Dr. John Bertrand Gurdon(2012), Dr. Ada E. Yonath (2014) UCRF organizes the Review Committee of Equipment Acquisition for effective equipment introduction and utilization, and supports purchasing equipment approved by the Review committee of Equipment Acquisition. In the Garden of the Nobel, along Gamak Pond, there are Monumental Planted Trees. The place which is for commemorates Nobel prize winner's visits while providing nice scenery and strong inspiration for the students and a scenic resting place for anyone in the community. We are eagerly looking forward to the day of our very UNISTARs planting their monumental trees in the Garden of Nobel in the future. UNIST Supercomputing Center(USC) The Nine Bridges In its strive to build and eco-friendly campus, UNIST has the natural waterways and has arranged main buildings in a fan shape centering around Gamak Pond. 9 bridges were built on a campus to preserve the small streams flowing in out of the pond, called ‘The Nine Bridges.’ Each bridge is yet left unnamed to be called after the future Nobel prize winners arising from UNIST. It is our hope that current UNISTARs who are working hard towards their dreams as they cross ‘The Nine Bridges’ will come to realize their dreams in the near future. Library The UNIST Library is a landmark site in UNIST which is located in the center of the campus. The library is also the best view in campus because of a great view of Gamak pond. 4 UNIST Supercomputing Center(USC) was established in March 2010 to lead the state-of-the-art research using supercomputing technology. USC plays the following four major roles. 1. "Leading Center for Stateof-the-Art Research", by integrating theoretical and computational R&D capability, constructing infrastructure, and leading creative, interdisciplinary, cutting-edge research. 2. "Principle Network Center", as a principle center for 'Partnership&Leadership for the nationwide Supercomputing Infrastructure(PLSI)' and Ulsan regional center for Korea Research Environment Open Network(KREONET). 3. "Collaborating Center for Research Institute&Companies", by collaborating and developing design, analysis, and evaluation techniques for products and manufacturing processes together with companies, universities, and research institutes in the Ulsan area using computing resources. 4. "Educational Center for Specialists", by developing human resources for computational research and supercomputing. By playing the four roles, the USC now provides an excellent environment for cutting-edge scientific researches not only to UNIST members but also to local industry, research institutes, and universities.

UNIST History History and Mission of UNIST Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology nestles in Ulsan Metropolitan City, an industrial powerhouse of South Korea and a home to the world's largest shipyard and automobile assembly, and the world's second largest oil refinery. As an industrial heart of South Korea, there had always been a craving for talented engineers and scientists who can achieve new growth through technology innovation and research. With this backdrop, UNIST was founded and opened its door to 499 students in 2009. UNIST's mission is to advance knowledge and educate students in the field of science and engineering to serve the nation and benefit the humankind. The incumbent president Mooje Cho, now serving his second term, envisioned a global leading research university when he was sworn in as the very first president of UNIST. In order to make this dream come true, UNIST has adopted many audacious approaches in education and research. 'Flipped learning' teaching method, English-only lectures policy and mandatory double major system are some of the good examples of such efforts. Thanks to its member's hard work and the innovative system, UNIST has produced substantial outcomes despite its short history. In June of 2014, UNIST ranked 4th in NPI(Nature Publishing Index), a yardstick of research capability among Korean institutes. Also, a technology transfer agreement for the second lithium-ion battery technology developed by an UNIST professor was signed by a local company for 6 million US dollars, ranking one of the top technology transfer deals that have been signed in Korea. UNIST has also successfully invited Institute for Basic Science(IBS) to establish three research centers at UNIST, each of which will be funded with 10 million US dollars per year for the maximum of 10 years by the government in an attempt to nurture future Nobel Prize laureate. During the past five years, UNIST has attracted world-class faculty and top-caliber students from Korea and overseas, and has built the state-of-the-art research facility. UNIST will not rest on its laurels, but will continue to make a good use of these resources in order to carry out the institute's mission and become a global leading research university.

The Undergraduate Program U NIST establishes unique undergraduate degree programs. All students must choose two tracks (primary and secondary major) throughout their college years. All freshmen learn the basics of sciences and mathematics without deciding their majors. At the beginning of second year, students decide their majors. This unique system is to promote creative thinkings and broad experience in related topics with a strong emphasis on the solid and cutting-edge knowledge on the interdisciplinary study topics. Undergraduates complete at least 135 credits in Engineering Field(134 in Business Administration field) including major courses, internship programs, fundamentals, interdisciplinary project, leadership programs, and English proficiency test score for graduation. Major Courses There are 20 tracks in 9 schools at UNIST. Students must choose more than two tracks and complete the requirement of each track for graduation. Internship Programs The programs are comprised of research internship, industry internship, and entrepreneur internship. The research internship offers an opportunity to participate in a research with world-class faculty members. The industry internship gives students the experience in the industry field, a way to employment, and the opportunity to find their career. The entrepreneur internship intends to educate undergraduate students regarding establish a business, promote their interests and knowledge, and let them have an easier way to start a business. Fundamentals The basics of mathematics, science, IT, and business administration are the fundamentals of major courses. They will help students to study the major courses. Interdisciplinary Project: Based upon the two tracks students have majored in for 4 years, a new interdisciplinary project is launched. An additional study field may be newly applied to the project. A novel and innovative project can be created by fusing a variety of fields. Leadership Programs The program is to build a sense of community spirit, teamwork, and global leadership with various team activities, laying the groundwork for the humanistic education like an attitude of self-sacrifice and service spirit. In addition, it assists students with future careers and goals through career search. English Proficiency Test To acquire the certificaed English test score Such as TOEIC, TOEFL, and TEPS can raise qualities as global talent. You can prepare for further study and employment. 8 9 FACT 2014-15 3.
