Gamak Pond

Long before UNIST Campus came about in this area, a village called 'Gamakmotan' was here, with its name derived from Gamak Pond which means ‘a pond with black soil.’ With its surface area of 22,888㎡, Gamak Pond is undoubtedly the center and the most remarkable landmark on the campus that can be seen from any building on campus. The view of the five fountains beautifully spouting its energy into the sky is enough to catch the attention of the by passers.

The Garden of Nobel

˙ Dr. Richard Timothy Hunt(2011), Dr. Konstantin Novoselov(2011), ˙ Dr. John Bertrand Gurdon(2012), Dr. Ada E. Yonath (2014)

In the Garden of the Nobel, along Gamak Pond, there are Monumental Planted Trees. The place which is for commemorates Nobel prize winner's visits while providing nice scenery and strong inspiration for the students and a scenic resting place for anyone in the community. We are eagerly looking forward to the day of our very UNISTARs planting their monumental trees in the Garden of Nobel in the future.

The Nine Bridges

In its strive to build and eco-friendly campus, UNIST has the natural waterways and has arranged main buildings in a fan shape centering around Gamak Pond. 9 bridges were built on a campus to preserve the small streams flowing in out of the pond, called ‘The Nine Bridges.’ Each bridge is yet left unnamed to be called after the future Nobel prize winners arising from UNIST. It is our hope that current UNISTARs who are working hard towards their dreams as they cross ‘The Nine Bridges’ will come to realize their dreams in the near future.

Library

The UNIST Library is a landmark site in UNIST which is located in the center of the campus. The library is also the best view in campus because of a great view of Gamak pond.

UNIST Central Research Facilities(UCRF)

UNIST Central Research Faci l i t ies (UCRF) was established in 2009 for the purpose of enhancing the research abilities of UNIST through the sharing of expensive equipment, the promotion of interdisciplinary studies, and the establ ishment of a network of professionals specialized in analysis and instrumentation.

2. UNIST History

History and Mission of UNIST

Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology nestles in Ulsan Metropolitan City, an industrial powerhouse of South Korea and a home to the world's largest shipyard and automobile assembly, and the world's second largest oil refinery. As an industrial heart of South Korea, there had always been a craving for talented engineers and scientists who can achieve new growth through technology innovation and research.

With this backdrop, UNIST was founded and opened its door to 499 students in 2009. UNIST's mission is to advance knowledge and educate students in the field of science and engineering to serve the nation and benefit the humankind.

The incumbent president Mooje Cho, now serving his second term, envisioned a global leading research university when he was sworn in as the very first president of UNIST. In order to make this dream come true, UNIST has adopted many audacious approaches in education and research. 'Flipped learning' teaching method, English-only lectures policy and mandatory double major system are some of the good examples of such efforts.

Thanks to its member's hard work and the innovative system, UNIST has produced substantial outcomes despite its short history. In June of 2014, UNIST ranked 4th in NPI(Nature Publishing Index), a yardstick of research capability among Korean institutes. Also, a technology transfer agreement for the second lithium-ion battery technology developed by an UNIST professor was signed by a local company for 6 million US dollars, ranking one of the top technology transfer deals that have been signed in Korea. UNIST has also successfully invited Institute for Basic Science(IBS) to establish three research centers at UNIST, each of which will be funded with 10 million US dollars per year for the maximum of 10 years by the government in an attempt to nurture future Nobel Prize laureate.

During the past five years, UNIST has attracted world-class faculty and top-caliber students from Korea and overseas, and has built the state-of-the-art research facility. UNIST will not rest on its laurels, but will continue to make a good use of these resources in order to carry out the institute's mission and become a global leading research university.
