The headquarters of Asian Research Network is in this center. In January 2009, Taro Aso, the former Prime Minister of Japan visited this building to encourage researchers.[1]

Building[]

It was constructed for research institutes and education with 13 floors : B2~11F. The features of this building are focused on research. There are spaces for a research group office, seminar rooms, and experimental equipment. Also, this building is connected to the Annex of Engineering Center of Hanyang University with a sky bridge. A Clean room for special devices is located on 2F. The building is located in the Hanyang University Seoul campus, South Korea.
