Abstract
SummaryPolymer education in South Korea is described in connection with the industrialization of the country after the Korean War. Adversities such as the destruction of production facilities during the war had to be overcome before industrialization and development of plastics industry dynamically took off. Different approaches of polymer education in universities and scientific societies in South Korea are described. Short courses and polymer education through the internet are also mentioned. Industrial production of electronic devices (TV sets, mobile phones), automotive and ship‐building industry requires highly skilled scientists and engineers to provide the necessary polymeric materials. Devotion of people in Korea to education, including polymer education, might play an important role in the present prosperity of South Korea.
