Inha University is a private, co-educational, doctoral granting university located in Incheon, South Korea. Inha University was established by the first president of South Korea, Syngman Rhee. It is a Korean-American collaboration school, even in its name: the Morpheme "In" (인 , 仁) comes from the city of Incheon and "Ha" comes from Hawaii, USA. At first time, it started as a technical college, named Inha Institute of Technology (IIT). Currently, Inha is ranked 11th nationwide by JoongAng Ilbo's annual ranking of South Korean universities. Inha is a member of GU8.[4]
[edit] EstablishmentIn 1952 [5], in the midst of the Korean War, the first President of Korea, Dr. Syng Man Rhee proposed the foundation of an educational institute that would provide expertise and hope to a lagging industrial sector. The driving force behind the proposal was the will and determination of a group of Koreans who had emigrated to Hawaii 50 years earlier. Financial resources for the foundation came from the proceeds of the sale of the Korea Christian Institute[1], an organization founded and managed by Dr. Rhee for the purpose of educating the children of the original emigrants, donations from Korean emigrants in Hawaii and domestic supporters, and a government subsidy. Incheon city donated a school site and in February, 1954, construction began in earnest, to finally have the Inha Institute of Technology opened later the same year[6]. [edit] VisionToday, Inha University is making its utmost effort to foster professionals with genuine academic skills and a character befitting the school motto of Truth. Inha has already produced as many as 120,000 graduates who are now leading the nation’s industries and science and technology. Inha currently educates 20,000 students, while continuing efforts to become one of the top universities in the world. Inha is ever doing its best to improve so students can enjoy the college life and have pride in their school. All Inha professors make the greatest effort to provide students with the best lectures and to foster talent by focusing on additional special lectures, internship, e-learning, and overseas exchanges. In addition, Inha believe in a balanced education that includes the liberal arts, far too often forgotten in an increasingly digitalized world. Inha has a firm belief in that the true purpose of a university, the development of human spirits, lies not in the quantitative and external expansion, but in the realization of human values and the nurturing of creativity. Motivated by our prominent tradition, all at Inha will never stop their efforts to fulfill its mission as a center of comprehensive studies and arts [7].
