Seoul Institute of the Arts established ATEC, the place where Art and Science coexist, innovating the paradigm of art creation.
The Arts Engineering Center has a multidimensional space equipped with a research creation space where video, music, exhibitions, and performances can be linked, circulated, and integrated, as well as advanced studios and multimedia imaging equipment, creating an environment to cultivate professionals in the field of digital cultural contents.
While conducting in-depth education in the field of digital cultural contents and integration education with neighboring art fields, various measures are being prepared to realize research and creation that breathes life, experimentation, and challenges, which are the founding ideologies of Seoul Institute of the ARTS, through exchanges with world-class colleges, industries, and experts.
