Why Choose KAIST?
Student Impressions and Opinions
"There is a much closer relation between the professor and students.
The teaching atmosphere is closer, personal, like a school [than a university]:
classes are small, mostly 20-30 people, which allowed for much more individual
teaching."

"I was a little nervous because this would be my first time studying abroad,
adapting to a new environment, completing courses in English, and suffer from
homesickness. However, I felt hospitality and kindness from KAIST and the
Korean people and, what’s more, I [gradually] felt at home."

"[KAIST students] are famous for being hardworking and intelligent. I had the
impression that being a KAIST student was really tough... and how KAIST
students were able to cope with life. KAIST exceeded my expectations: I am really
amazed at how the students are able to cope up with being good at studies, but
also enjoy being a student in the form of social [and] extracurricular club
activities."

"If you are speaking with Koreans, anywhere in Korea, and they are asking where
you study, you will figure out by their reactions to the answer of what KAIST is and
[what it] stands for."
