By bringing together leading researchers and talented students, as well as government and industry partners, KAIST and NYU will create a new, cross-continental nexus of innovation, discovery, and entrepreneurship.

These efforts benefit from dedicated spaces both on KAIST’s main campus in Daejeon, South Korea, and NYU’s Downtown Brooklyn campus, the home of the NYU Tandon School of Engineering and the heart of the University’s technology and emerging media corridor. Joint professorships, affiliations, and doctoral and postdoctoral fellowship opportunities will also be available.

Research Groups

Cochaired by an NYU and KAIST faculty member, each research group leverages each institutions' considerable academic and research expertise to innovate solutions and drive advances in some of the world's greatest challenges.
