Leading Development of Future Pharmacy through Drug Discovery

University Affiliated Research Institute That Pioneers Development of Pharmacology and Health Care

Yonsei University, which started its first modern medical education in Korea more than 130 years ago, trained not only doctors but also pharmacists at the time. Unfortunately, since 1900, however, the operation of pharmacology courses has been suspended for more than 100 years. After a long wait, with the establishment of the College of Pharmacy on the Yonsei International Campus in Songdo, Incheon, Yonsei University is once again providing the momentum for the progress of pharmacy and health care at home and abroad by educating talented individuals with capacities to lead the industry.

The College of Pharmacy of Yonsei University is leading the prime pharmaceutical education and research in South Korea, taking the pole position at the forefront of industry-academic-research cooperation through its strategic location in Songdo International Business District, where more than 50 pharmaceutical corporations, including Samsung Biologics, Celltrion, DM Bio, Ajinomoto Genexine, Berna Biotech, Janssen Vaccine, Bi-nex, Merck, etc., renowned research institutes, and universities gathered to form a bio-industry cluster. Songdo shows enormous growth potential, with the city having the world's best biopharmaceutical production capacity. It aims to attract more than 300 companies while creating more than 15,000 jobs, mainly in the bio-health industry, by 2030.
