School of AI Future Convergence Faculty


‘AI+X’ is the future.
The AI Future Convergence Division prepares with you for the future that the 4th Industrial Revolution will bring.
‘AI Future Convergence Faculty’ is the first AI convergence education representative department of a 4-year cyber university in Korea.





Faculty Introduction

Global Cyber University established the ‘AI Future Convergence Department’ for the first time in a 4-year cyber university program in Korea to lead the artificial intelligence ecosystem based on the Hongik human spirit.The Department of AI Future Convergence at Global Cyber University can obtain a regular 4-year bachelor's degree in engineering.The Division of AI Future Convergence aims to nurture key talents who will lead the upcoming ‘AI+X’ era in preparation for social changes and future industrial demands linked to the 4th Industrial Revolution.





Operation of ‘AI+X’ talent training course/h4>

The Department of AI Future Convergence is based on the core theories and knowledge education of computer engineering to foster 'AI+X' talents, enabling convergence education in the new technology of the 4th industrial revolution, 'AI computer information communication,’ 'AI metaverse’ There are three major tracks, 'Convergence' and 'AI Real Life Convergence.’

AI computer information communication

  • The major track nurtures ICT experts who have basic engineering knowledge as an engineer and the ability to adapt to the field.

AI metaverse fusion

  • The major track nurtures metaverse experts who can adapt to the field and learn to lead a global future convergence society using metaverse technology.
