Beyond the Limit of Human Cognition!
The Department of Cogno-Mechatronics Engineering was established in the fall semester, 2009 as a unique World Class University (WCU) department in the Graduate School of Pusan National University. We provide interdisciplinary education and research opportunities in the field of Nano-Bio-Info-Cogno (NBIC) fusion science and technology for cultivating active and creative Master’s/Ph.D. scientists and engineers to lead society in the 21st century.
The Department of Nanofusion Engineering in the Undergraduate School provides a basic and fundamental education in NBIC fusion science and technology, and more developed application-based studies can be completed in the Department of Cogno-Mechatronics in the Graduate School.
The Department of Cogno-Mechatronics Engineering has 13 faculty members including 6 distinguished foreign scholars from the USA, Australia, Singapore, Canada, and Japan. Foreign scholars will give lectures and conduct collaborative research while staying at Pusan National University one semester per year for 5 years. Most lectures in the department will be given in English, and the Department of Cogno- Mechatronics Engineering provides unique and comprehensive educational and research opportunities through cooperative guidance by domestic and foreign professors.

"Achievement of a world-class department in the field of cogno-mechatronics engineering
The ultimate goal is to provide extensive education and research opportunities in NBIC fusion science and technology, and especially to develop mechanical and electronic systems for sensing and imaging of the human body (including the brain and other neural systems). Our outstanding foreign and domestic faculty members specializing in nanomaterials, mechatronics, electronics, cogno-engineering, and neuroscience create an optimized environment for NBIC fusion education.
