Historia
Colegio Bosung
La Universidad de Corea fue establecida el 5 de mayo de 1905 como Bosung College por Lee Yong-Ik, Tesorero de la Casa Real. El primer presidente de la universidad fue Hae-Uoung Shin. Como institución académica de origen nacionalista, fue considerada como un símbolo del orgullo nacional durante el período colonial (1910-1945).
Bosung College tuvo que soportar muchas dificultades antes de que surgiera la actual Universidad de Corea. Poco después de que se estableciera el Bosung College, se firmó el "Protocolo Corea-Japón" y Lee Yong-Ik, fundador del Bosung College, se exilió para liderar el movimiento de resistencia contra Japón. Su exilio creó dificultades financieras para la institución. Afortunadamente, sin embargo, la primera crisis financiera se superó cuando Sohn Byong-Hee, un líder de Chundokyo , un movimiento nacionalista, religioso y político en ese momento, asumió la dirección de la institución.
En 1929, la fundación enfrentó una vez más una grave crisis financiera como resultado de la recesión mundial . Kim Seong-su acudió al rescate cuando se convirtió en presidente del Colegio en 1932. En ese momento, Kim dirigía la escuela secundaria Choong-Ang y el Dong-A Ilbo , un periódico diario.
Reubicación
En junio de 1932, Kim Sung-Soo asumió el cargo de presidente del Bosung College, y en 1934 se completó el edificio principal en un área de tierra de 63.000 pyeong ubicada en Anam-dong . La construcción de la biblioteca comenzó en 1935 para conmemorar el trigésimo aniversario de la fundación del Bosung College y se completó dos años después. En julio del año siguiente , se agregó al campus un gran campo de atletismo . Kim Sung-Soo, como presidente, hizo todo lo posible para convertir Bosung College en la primera universidad coreana genuina. Desafortunadamente, sus esperanzas no se hicieron realidad debido a las restricciones impuestas durante el dominio colonial japonés . En abril de 1944, el gobierno colonial japonés obligó al Bosung College a cambiar su nombre y lo puso bajo la supervisión de las autoridades japonesas.
Era moderna
Después de la Independencia en 1945, el estado de Bosung College se elevó al de una universidad que comprende tres facultades, Ciencias Políticas y Derecho, Economía y Comercio y Artes Liberales. Hyun Sang-Yun, el primer presidente, inició una expansión del campus comprando bosques y tierras. En junio de 1949, la Universidad de Corea otorgó sus primeros títulos de licenciatura y en septiembre del mismo año se estableció la escuela de posgrado. Yu Chin-O, el cuarto presidente, continuó expandiendo la Universidad de Corea con el establecimiento de la División de Ciencias dentro de la Facultad de Artes Liberales , así como una cuarta universidad, la Facultad de Agricultura .
En junio de 1961 se completó el actual edificio de Artes Liberales (Seokwan). También se completaron diversas instalaciones como el museo , el laboratorio de agricultura , el invernadero y otros edificios para servicios estudiantiles. En el mismo año, se agregó a las instalaciones una granja experimental de aproximadamente 1.680.000 pyeong. Además, los Departamentos de Ciencia e Ingeniería fueron equipados con laboratorios e instrumentos. En diciembre de 1963, se estableció la Escuela de Graduados en Administración de Empresas , la primera de su tipo en Corea. En octubre de 1965, Yu Chin-O se jubiló después de quince años de servicio como cuarto presidente de la Universidad de Corea y fue sucedido por el profesor Lee Chong-Woo como quinto presidente. Después de 1966, la Universidad de Corea continuó expandiéndose con un aumento gradual en el número de departamentos dentro de la Facultad de Ciencias e Ingeniería y en la Facultad de Agricultura. También se fundó la Escuela de Postgrado en Educación. Se agregaron más instalaciones, incluidos los nuevos edificios anexos, el Edificio de Educación General (Kyoyangkwan) y el Edificio de Comunicación Masiva (Hongbokwan).
En octubre de 1970, el Dr. Kim Sang-Hyup, profesor de ciencias políticas , fue nombrado sexto presidente, sucediendo a Lee Chong-Woo, quien se jubiló en septiembre de ese año. En diciembre de 1971, tuvo lugar una importante reorganización de la Universidad de Corea. De acuerdo con el plan de desarrollo a largo plazo, todas las facultades de la Universidad de Woosuk, incluidas las de Medicina, Artes y Ciencias Liberales, Derecho y Economía, la Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud Aliadas y el Hospital Universitario de Woosuk , se integraron completamente en la Universidad de Corea. En junio de 1972, se completó el Edificio de Administración de Empresas (Kyoyangkwan) para albergar la Facultad de Comercio y la Escuela de Graduados en Administración de Empresas. En diciembre del mismo año, se estableció la Facultad de Educación .
En abril de 1975, el presidente Kim Sang-Hyup fue sucedido por Cha Rak-Hoon, quien se convirtió en el séptimo presidente. En diciembre de 1976, la Facultad de Comercio pasó a llamarse Facultad de Administración de Empresas. La Escuela de Graduados en Alimentación y Agricultura se estableció en enero del año siguiente. En diciembre de 1977, la Facultad de Ciencias e Ingeniería se separó en la Facultad de Ciencias y la Facultad de Ingeniería. Además, la nueva Biblioteca Central, la más grande de su tipo en Corea del Sur en ese momento, se inauguró en marzo de 1978. En julio de 1983, la Facultad de Medicina y el hospital se ampliaron y reorganizaron en el Centro Médico de la Universidad de Corea , que luego incluyó cuatro nuevos hospitales: Haewha, Guro, Yeoju y Ansan. En septiembre de 1983, la Biblioteca de Ciencias abrió como centro de investigación científica y tecnológica y en ese momento era el edificio más grande y moderno del campus.
En junio de 2001, la Universidad de Corea concluyó un programa académico conjunto con la Universidad de Columbia Británica en Canadá. El Liceo de la Universidad de Corea se completó y SK Telecom hizo una contribución significativa en el mismo mes. En julio se fundaron la División de Estudios Internacionales y la Escuela de Periodismo y Comunicación de Masas. En octubre, la Universidad de Corea obtuvo la autenticación ISO9001 en todas las áreas educativas y administrativas.
100 aniversario
En 2005, la Universidad de Corea celebró su centenario del Día de la Fundación, el 5 de mayo.
En marzo, la Facultad de Ciencias de la Vida y Biotecnología y la Facultad de Ciencias de la Vida y Ambientales se integraron en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Vida y Biotecnología . Al mismo tiempo, se abolió la Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud Junior y se fusionó en la nueva Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud altamente desarrollada.
Actualmente, la Universidad de Corea está compuesta por dieciséis facultades y divisiones, así como dieciocho escuelas de posgrado y once instalaciones auxiliares, incluidas bibliotecas , un museo y una oficina de prensa para relaciones públicas.

He started with the strengthening of educational competence by doubling the publication requirements required for faculty promotion and raising the ratio of the classes taught in English to 35% of all courses taught. He also ensured that core liberal arts classes are taught by full-time faculty and required every student except those in the Colleges of Engineering, Law, and Medicine to do a double major. He also showed a peculiar passion for building dormitories for Korea University students at the University of British Columbia in Canada and the University of London in the UK, signing academic exchange agreements with 172 universities overseas, and dispatching 60% of administration staff to the world's top 100 universities for training.[27] Korea University also expanded its international-level facilities. Starting with the Centennial Memorial Samsung Hall, it built many state-of-the-art buildings such as the Hwajung Gymnasium, Tiger Plaza, and Hana Square, and also expanded educational and cultural spaces.

The government mobilized organized gangster groups to forcefully shut down this demonstration, injuring and incarcerating many. Korea University students take great pride in being one of the most active participants in Korean modern history, and the April 18 Marathon is one of the ways in which they honor their seniors who strived for a better future.
