A ladybug that picks up students! Gachon
University has an eco-bus who can be the two legs of students!
10 minutes left until the next class but if you must walk 15 minutes to the next classroom? The way not to be late is to take the school bus!
If there is no easy way, make a way! What are three shortcuts used by Gachon University students?
Have you ever been in trouble because a building is too high or too far away? Gachon University students endure these difficulties and go to classroom to take classes.
The biggest cause is the location of the campus. Gachon University is on Yeongjang Mountain. So, it is no wonder that the road is steep.
Gachon University has the advantage of being connected to the campus and Gachon University Staion. “Gachon University Throughfare” is connected to a square with campus welfare stores such as Olive Young, Twosome Place, which are frequently used by students.
The passage connected to the basement is for the convenience of students using buildings close to the main gate. However, students who use the upper buildings are bound to the uncomfortable.
So Gachon University provides transportation for convenience. Students also try to find shortcuts and move around comfortably.
1. School Eco-bus Moodang-i
The transportation that is constantly helping students go to school is Gachon University's eco bus, "Mudang-i." Four shuttle buses have been in operation since 2011, and the official name is Eco Bus. It has the advantage of being pollution-free because it uses electricity.

It operates with two 23-seater and two 18-seater buses and can run up to 40 kilometers per hour but runs 10 to 20 kilometers in schools with many uphill paths.
They run every 5 minutes in the morning and every 10 minutes until 17:30. (Lunch time is not operated for 1 hour) Students can check the shuttle bus operating schedule through the campus application.
The bus route to the dormitory is main gate > Graduate School of Education > Student Hall > dormitory. And the bus route to the Global Center where is close to the main gate is dormitory > Student Hall> main library > Graduate School of Education > university of arts > Global center

2. Shuttle Bus
Although Mudang-i is operating on every weekday, it can’t pick up all of students who want to move by Mudang-i. Students line up early to ride it, and during a busy time, they need 10-20 minutes of waiting time.
When the students are crowded, the waiting line becomes messy. Therefore, on May 19, 2022, the school decided to operate additional shuttle buses on campus to solve the problem.
