Taejon University

1. 1

   The short answer

   Taejon University is a public university in South Korea with a small programme catalogue across bachelor’s, master’s, and doctorate levels. It suits students who want a focused choice of art and design-related study rather than a wide general university menu.

2. 2

   What you can study

   Students can study Japanese Painting, Oil Painting, Sculpture, The Study of Contemporary Art Practice and Visual Culture (SCAPe), Holistic Design, Industrial Design, and Craft. The university also lists Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs, so it offers study beyond first degree level, but the full programme catalogue is still limited to 9 programmes.

   Getting in

   International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions process and check the website for entry requirements, document lists, deadlines, and any language or portfolio conditions tied to the programme they want. If they plan to study at graduate level, they should confirm the exact requirements for master’s or doctoral admission before applying.

   What it costs

   The university does not publish a tuition fee range for international students; confirm the current rate with its admissions office. Living costs in South Korea will depend on housing, food, transport, and personal spending, so budget separately for those.

5. 5

   Coming from abroad

   The language of instruction is not published, so confirm that before applying. A student moving from abroad should also check visa steps, the admissions deadline, required documents, and whether the chosen programme has any additional requirements such as a portfolio or prior major.

   How it compares

   South Korea has 245 universities, so Taejon University sits in a large national higher-education market. Compared with many options in that setting, it looks more specialised and narrower in scope, with just 9 listed programmes and a clear emphasis on art and design subjects.
