Overview
○ POSTECH operates the 'Pre-POSTECHIAN Program' to help prospective students strengthen their foundational academic skills through advance study during the period before entering university.
○ Students may select courses based on their individual needs and circumstances.
○ Courses are provided in an online lecture format through POSTECH's own educational platform. These are not live sessions — students can study at their own pace and at times that suit them.
○ Students can assess their own understanding through self-check quizzes for each subject. Quiz results are visible only to the individual student.
○ Students who complete 80% or more of a course based on each subject's criteria will receive a certificate of completion, along with a small commemorative gift. Please note that course completion does not count toward graduation credits.
