The Department of Display Engineering and Convergence trains specialists to lead the next-generation information technology industry based on display technology — the core interface where humans and information meet. The department was established through a collaboration between LG Display, a global leader in advanced display technology, and Yonsei University.

Displays are essential technologies in smartphones, TVs, laptops, automobiles, wearables, and AR/VR devices, with growing importance across modern industry. The department provides multidisciplinary theoretical and practical education spanning the core technologies that make up displays — devices, processes, materials, circuits, design, and optics. Students gain an understanding of display structure and operating principles, and develop the ability to design new device and process technologies. The curriculum covers not only next-generation technologies such as OLED, micro-LED, and QD displays, but also future areas including flexible and transparent displays, ultra-high resolution, and intelligent displays.

The department emphasizes design and analytical skills for solving real industrial problems grounded in fundamental science and engineering. Project-based and lab-based learning allows students to implement theory as actual technology. Close industry–academia collaboration supports differentiated programs including internships, field training, and joint research. Year-by-year academic and industry programs — including internships and attendance at international conferences — enable students to directly experience global display industry and academic trends, systematically deepening their industrial understanding and expertise to ultimately grow into the key talent who will lead future display technology.
