Chonnam National University (CNU; Korean: 전남대학교) is one of ten Flagship Korean National Universities located in Gwangju and South Jeolla Province, South Korea. In March 2006, Yeosu National University merged with Chonnam National University to become a satellite campus. CNU ranked the 10th nationwide and the 420th worldwide in world university rankings in the CWUR (Center for World University Rankings). It was also the 1st among the nine Korean national flagship universities in “Asia’s Top 75 Most Innovative Universities” in 2017 Reuters.[citation needed]
Chonnam National University was established on January 1, 1952, from the merger of five universities in South Jeolla Province.[2] A second merger with Yosu National University in 2006 created the separate Yosu Campus of CNU.
In 1980, members of the university’s student body played a key role in instigating the Gwangju Uprising.[3]
