In January 2008, the university dropped its full name, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, and changed its official name to only KAIST. The goals of KAIST set by Suh were to become one of the best science and technology universities in the world, and to become one of the top-10 universities by 2011. The ‘KAIST Development Five-Year Plan’ was finalized on Februby KAIST Steering Committee. The first act of President Suh upon his inauguration in July 2006 was to lay out the KAIST Development Plan. In the same year KAIST and the Korea Institute of Technology (KIT) combined and moved from Seoul to the Daedeok Science Town in Daejeon.
Due to differing research philosophies, KIST and KAIST split in 1989. In 1981 the government merged the Korean Advanced Institute of Science and the Korean Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) to form the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, or KAIST. Research studies had begun by 1973 and undergraduates studied for bachelor's degrees by 1984. The institute's two main functions were to train advanced scientists and engineers and develop a structure of graduate education in the country. Terman, then vice president of Stanford University, and Chung Geum-mo, a professor at the Polytechnic Institution of Brooklyn. The institute's academic scheme was mainly designed by Frederick E. The institute was founded in 1971 as the Korea Advanced Institute of Science (KAIS) by a loan of US$6 million (US$38 million 2019) from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and supported by President Park Chung-Hee. Terman discuss the establishment of the institute.
Its partner institutions include the Technical University of Denmark, Carnegie Mellon University, the Georgia Institute of Technology, the Technical University of Berlin, and the Technical University of Munich. In 2007, KAIST partnered with international institutions and adopted dual degree programs for its students. KAIST has 10,504 full-time students and 1,342 faculty researchers (as of Fall 2019 Semester) and had a total budget of US$765 million in 2013, of which US$459 million was from research contracts.

KAIST is considered to be one of the most prestigious universities in the nation. KAIST was established by the Korean government in 1971 as the nation's first public, research-oriented science and engineering institution. The Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology ( KAIST) is a national research university located in Daedeok Innopolis, Daejeon, South Korea.
