This engineering master’s should be selected for its technical and analytical content, not simply because AI is a popular label. Asia Pathway can help you assess whether your previous study provides the preparation needed for a realistic application.
Admission and language requirements
- A recognised bachelor’s degree or accepted equivalent, with academic preparation suitable for the intended graduate field.
- Academic transcripts, graduation documents, passport and nationality or family documents as required for your application.
- English-language guidance includes IELTS 5.5 or an accepted equivalent. Eligibility and accepted evidence must be checked against the current admissions requirements.
- Suitable language evidence and any additional material requested by the university.
- Financial and document-verification requirements must be checked for your applicant profile.
Plan before you submit. Asia Pathway can review your background, identify missing documents and explain the next steps. Meeting a minimum requirement does not guarantee admission; the university makes the final decision.
Tuition and scholarships
Budget per semester. Tuition is charged by semester, not as one all-inclusive degree package. Ask Asia Pathway for the current standard semester fee for your exact major and entry route, together with any approved scholarship calculation. USD figures are indicative conversions; the university’s final invoice and payment-currency requirements take priority.
Scholarship opportunities: Eligible applicants may be considered for entry awards that can cover tuition and university accommodation. Award levels depend on the applicable nationality and entry conditions. Continuing awards are assessed separately using academic performance and attendance, so an entry award should not be treated as guaranteed funding for every semester.
Other costs: Plan separately for admission or application charges, accommodation, meals, insurance, textbooks or materials, travel, visa-related expenses and personal living costs. Scholarship coverage should never be assumed to include these items.
Life and learning in Goseong

University accommodation can support a campus-based student experience. Residence fees, meal arrangements, room availability and any scholarship coverage need to be confirmed for your individual offer.
