An AI focus within a shared graduate framework
- Artificial Intelligence: select the AI-focused direction within the graduate department.
- Shared learning: engage with the department’s common core and required-subject structure.
- Academic development: strengthen the ability to examine technical ideas and communicate an informed position.
- Individual planning: discuss your subject interests and the current study options before choosing a route.
The graduate department uses a flexible, shared curriculum across Artificial Intelligence, AI Convergence and Big Data Management. These are related focus areas, not three unrelated courses with entirely separate advertised module lists. Your AI direction should be matched to the current curriculum, available supervision and the university’s completion requirements.
Who is this program for?
Bachelor’s graduates with a clear interest in AI and sufficient academic preparation for their proposed study. Applicants from a different field should ask whether additional technical preparation is required.
Career directions
Depending on prior training and the actual study plan, possible directions include AI-related project work, technology development, research support and further academic study. Specialist technical roles require demonstrated skills; a master’s title alone does not establish professional competence.
We can help you compare this focus with AI Convergence and Big Data Management before applying. Ask us for the current module list, teaching arrangements and completion route rather than assuming a fixed set of technologies or a guaranteed research project.
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.
- Submit English-language evidence appropriate to the current graduate route. Do not assume the undergraduate benchmark automatically applies to postgraduate admission.
- 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.
Graduate entry scholarship: International graduate freshmen may qualify for a 40% first-semester tuition scholarship. The award applies to tuition, not the complete cost of studying in Seoul. Confirm its inclusion in your offer and ask separately about conditions for later semesters.
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 Seoul
Combine university study with everyday life in Seoul. KBU’s Nowon-gu location provides a base for discovering the capital while settling into a university community with a Christian educational identity. Consider how the university’s values and campus expectations fit the environment you want for your studies.
Asia Pathway can help you ask about accommodation options and plan a realistic living budget. Do not assume that a tuition scholarship automatically includes housing, meals or other everyday expenses.
