Pukyong National University

This is the study of the basic theory and its applications that are necessary in the development of photo engineering and electronic imaging. Photoelectronic imaging material is the basis of image information, engineering, and the center of information media and the foundation of knowledge-based industry in the 21st century.

Our department is the only one of its kind in Korea. We teach and research theory and application techniques through lectures and practices by targeting image-related technology such as gain, form, record, process, analysis, and the saving and displaying of images.

Recently, image technology has been developed with image system technology, which is applied to electronic technologies such as modern image material technology, photo engineering, multimedia and displays combined with polymer/organic material, and nano technology based on image formation technology. This department can prepare students for employment by exploring and one of these fields in depth, according to students’ personal interests.

The number of intellectuals required is increasing rapidly because the image-related field (semi-conductor, TFT-LCD, ELD, LED, organic EL, photoelectric element, etc) has been identified as an industry of the future in Korea and overseas.

This department aims to developing its related technology and nurture professional intellectuals.

Employment fields are Samsung Electronics, Samsung SDI, Samsung Techwin, LG Electronics, LG Display, Hynix Semiconductor Inc., Seoul Semiconductors and enterprises related to display, semiconductors, photo-materials, venture companies and national research centers.
