Humanities and Social Sciences Campus at Seoul
As the cultural, economic, and political center of the nation, Seoul provides infinite opportunities for research. University students reap benefits from the city's resources, and are able to put into practice what they have learned in the classroom. The University is located inside the city walls, within the original capital of Joseon. Located on the original Sungkyunkwan site, the Humanities and Social Sciences Campus is spread over a hill looking down on Jongmyo Royal Shrine, which has been designated by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage Site. Currently, 6 schools and 3 colleges and many graduate schools are located at the campus. To commemorate the founding philosophy of the University, the 600th Anniversary Memorial Hall, which houses the Academy of East Asian Studies was constructed on this campus. The site was preserved for the Humanities and Social Sciences Campus, while the expanding science programs were moved to a new campus in Suwon.



Natural Sciences Campus at Suwon
The University's modern Natural Sciences Campus was established in 1978. This campus is situated 45km away from Seoul in the city of Suwon. Suwon is one of the cities which preserve the traditional beauty of the Joseon era [1392 ~ 1910], but it now also flourishes as a center for business, education and economic research, thanks to its proximity to major industrial complexes. The campus is home to 5 Schools, 2 Colleges as well as various graduate schools. In an effort to serve society by building a bridge between academia and the industrial sector, another initiative the Science Technology Park [STP] TM is being developed at this campus. Sungkyunkwan is now expanding upon the original vision by establishing 3rd campus in Pyeongtaek.
