Undergraduate students at KAIST start without their major department. At the end of the 2nd semester, students choose a major. Since 2016, KAIST undergraduate students are required to choose double majors or in-depth major of one department. Thus, students can choose industrial design as an in-depth major, a minor, or the first or the second major of double major.
 
About 830 students enter the undergraduate program each year. In April of one year before the starting semester, admission plan and details are released. Please refer to KAIST admission homepage for more details.
