*Others include mechatronics engineering, applied engineering, and general engineering.
The source does only provide the total number of students and the number of female students. Since this is a governmental source and South Korea only recognizes two genders, the number of female students was subtracted from the total number of students in order to calculate the number of male students.
The source does not provide a release date, therefore the date given is date of access.
