The Major of Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineering systematically educates and researches theory and application techniques related to the refrigeration and air conditioning field, which is becoming increasingly important as well as improving living standards due to the advancement of industrial technologies. The field of refrigeration and air conditioning is rapidly growing year by year and has great prospects in the areas of electronic home appliances (e.g. refrigerators and air conditioners), transportation (e.g. cars and ships), cooling and heating of buildings (e.g. heat pumps), air conditioning (e.g. clean rooms), new renewable energy (e.g. solar energy and unutilized energy), cryogenic fields where high-value products are stored, and more. The major has excellent professors in this field. They aim to cultivate outstanding professional manpower to lead the refrigeration and air conditioning sector in Korea in the 21st century through practical education in theory, lectures, and experiments. More than 80% of the graduates of this major are employed in major domestic and foreign corporations and public enterprises every year. As a result, the major maintains the highest employment rate in the university. It is a promising major that receives significant demand for graduates from midsize companies.
