With the Christian values of loving God and ones neighbors as a founding philosophy, Dongseo University was established by “Minseok” Chang Sung-man, PhD. The university emphasizes humanistic, Christ centered education to foster competent persons who can serve God and humanity. Its mottos are “truth, creation and service.”

The three strategies of specialization, informatization and internationalization have helped Dongseo University grow rapidly and become widely recognized, especially for the majors of Film & Video, IT, Design, and Digital Contents.

When it opened, the site of the university campus was a stark mountainside. It has now been transformed into a global campus for the 21st century, one that has recently been redefined as a “new prestigious university” and a “future university,” with many prominent figures visiting from around the world.

Over the next century, creativity will be needed more than ever before. The coming era will require integration among talented individuals with differentiated capacities. Through continual adaptation, Dongseo University will establish a new paradigm for educational contents and methods. It will help each student develop his or her creativity to its fullest in all majors.

Dongseo is a university that serves its community, and we earnestly strive to connect with our neighbors. We will be a university that improves alongside our community and proudly represents our area.

I would like to express my gratitude to the university’s faculty, students, alumni, and neighbors who have shown their commitment and affection toward the university. We will continue to work toward achieving our dream.
