Description:
The museum of the university, opened in 1987, preserves some five thousand relics relevant to education, archeology, history, and folklore; and significantly contributes to the understanding of tradition and the history of cultural properties in Korea. In particular, the museum has significantly contributed to academic studies of education and cultures by collecting, preserving, and exhibiting cultural relics, and to the cultivation of a thoroughly national spirit and independent philosophy of history.
