Chungbuk National University has seen a significant increase in its international student enrollment, with over 1,800 students from around 40 countries now part of its community. This growth is largely attributed to the university's strategic initiatives to enhance its international offerings, particularly in the fields of artificial intelligence, software, and global business.
The university introduced a master’s program in global business in September 2024, followed by graduate programs in convergence software and global education in September of the previous year. Additionally, two undergraduate majors in convergence software and global education were added in March of this year, further broadening the university's academic scope.
These expansions have resulted in the enrollment of 385 new students for the fall 2026 semester, including 109 in the master's program in convergence software, which has gained considerable attention due to the increasing demand for AI-related education.
