[edit] History
The school began its existence in 1948 in Seoul.
When the campus moved from Seoul to Anyang in 1980s, the school expanded to many areas of Liberal Arts and, later, to the areas of engineering, technology, and business as well. With such expansion, the school changed its name to "DaeShin University" in 1990, and the current name was adopted in March 1995. Dr. Youngsil Kim became the first president of the university since its conversion to university system. He was succeeded by Dr. Seung Tae Kim. Dr. Seung Tae Kim was educated in Korea and the United States (Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania), and has taught at this University for many years before he assumed this position.
[edit] Educational Philosophy
Brightening One Corner is the educational philosophy of Anyang University. This philosophy promotes the belief that one's dormant self can be woken up with greatness that can brighten one's life and, by extension, one's surroundings when one accepts and appreciates who one is, where one is and what one does.
This philosophy guides and encourages individuals to practice introspection, to pay attention to every moment in daily life, to speculate on the causes of one's existence and to commit to life.
