Welcome to the College of Social Sciences at GNU.
GNU is Gyeongnam’s national flagship university representing Korea.
The College of Social Sciences(CSS) was established independently from the College of Law and Economics in 1987.
As of 2025, our College has 1,250 students majoring in eight departments (Dep. of Economics, Dep. of Social Welfare, Dep. of Sociology, Dep. of Psychology, Dep. of Child and Family Studies, Dep. of Political Science and Diplomacy, Dep. of Public Administration, and Dep. of Media and Communication).
The CSS, and our excellent faculty members, operate diverse educational courses based on convergence and provide customized academic services to help students grow as promising leaders who lead change. In addition, we support student self-government activities, build educational infrastructure for self-directed learning, and share this with the local community to help students develop their capabilities as glocal talents. Furthermore, we maintain the tradition of being a critical academic community and train capable researchers through various academic activities.
As a representative flagship university in Gyeongnam, Gyeongsang National University will do its best to not only improve the specialized capabilities that society needs, but also to equip citizens with the qualities to pursue freedom while balancing the values of social justice and equity. We would appreciate it if you would watch over our efforts, support us, and participate with us.
