Seokyeong University (SKU) is a private university in South Korea. The campus is located in 16-1Jeongneung-dong, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul, South Korea.
Seokyeong University was established in October 1947 asHankook University (한국대학) which was the first 4-yearevening school in Korea. It had difficulties during and after theKorean War, and in 1955 the school foundation was succeeded by Kookjae Hakwon; the university was renamedKookjae University (국제대학, lit. "International University"; not to be confused with present-day Kookje University inPyeongtaek).
The university was succeeded by several foundations and in 1988 it moved to the present campus. In 1989 an independent and dedicated foundation was established for the university. In April 1992 the university was licensed as a full-fledged university, and in September 1992 it was renamedSeokyeong University. Since November 1998 the enrollment of the daytime students has been made larger than that of the evening students.[1]
