Greetings, and welcome to Gyeongin National University of Education (GINUE).

Since its foundation in 1946, GINUE has paved the way for the development of Korea’s national education system, spanning the Korean War, industrialization, and the digital era. Operating two campuses in Incheon and Gyeonggi-do, GINUE is renowned as both the largest and the highest-achieving university of education in Korea, in both teaching and research. Now, in the age of the fourth industrial revolution and the post-COVID-19 world, our goal is to take our next step forward into the future of education, and into the education of the future.

Our university motto translates as Great Power, Great Love, and Great Light, and these values are reflected in the work that we do, training first-class teachers, generating research encompassing preschools, elementary and secondary schools, lifelong learning, and special education, and promoting the development of local educational organizations in mutually-beneficial partnership with local communities and industries. We look forward to welcoming the next generation of students, teachers, researchers, entrepreneurs, and field experts to join us and work with us.

GINUE is continuing its pioneering work at the cutting edge of education, setting new standards and leading the way for higher education in years to come. That work is founded on creativity, imagination, empathy, and communication. What we achieve will cast our light into the local community, the nation, and the next generation. Our aim is for Gyeongin National University of Education to serve as a window to a bright and propitious future for all those whose paths lead them here.

Thank you.

President Dr. Chang-Won Kim
