Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU or Seongdae, Korean: 성균관대학교; Hanja: 成均館大學校) is a private research university with campuses in Seoul and Suwon, South Korea.
The institution traces its origins to the historic Sungkyunkwan founded in 1398 in central Seoul.[6] As the foremost educational institution during the Joseon period, it was governed by the great code of the state administration[7] with royal assent.[8] By a resolution of the Confucian scholars, it was restructured as a comprehensive university in the mid-20th century, and has since greatly expanded its academic offerings.
