About Kyonggi University
Kyonggi University (경기대학교 / KGU) is a major private comprehensive research university operating across two specialized campuses in Suwon, Gyeonggi-do, and central downtown Seoul, South Korea. Established in 1947 by Dr. Sang-kyo Son as the Choyang Kindergarten Teacher School, the institution expanded into Kyonggi College in Seoul in 1964 before inaugurating its expansive Suwon campus in 1979 and achieving comprehensive four-year university status in 1984. Certified under the Korean Ministry of Education’s International Education Quality Assurance System (IEQAS), Kyonggi University is celebrated for establishing South Korea's first four-year university department of tourism in 1963, creating the nation's premier College of Tourism Sciences specializing in tourism management, luxury hospitality, foodservice culinary arts, and international conventions. Additionally, Kyonggi is nationwide acclaimed for operating the elite Department of Police Administration, government-funded software and artificial intelligence convergence programs, KAAB-accredited five-year architecture, fine arts and animation, and the 22-story Kyonggi Dream Tower student residence.
