This page provides a summary of all the international graduate degree programs with research areas and official websites.

There are five colleges at KAIST: Natural Sciences; Life Science and Bio Engineering; Engineering; Liberal Arts and Convergence Science; and Business. All colleges and programs, except MBA programs, are implemented in Daejeon.

KAIST admits international graduate students through three cycles every year - Spring, Fall Early, and Fall Regular tracks – in shared timelines. However, programs that select students may vary by admission cycle. To see the confirmed list of the programs that admit international students in your intended admission cycle, please read the announcement on the Application Guide board.
