Disclosed are a method and apparatus for random access using random beam-switching in a wireless network environment. The random access method using random beam-switching in a wireless network environment includes selecting a given preamble when receiving a synchronization signal block from a base station, transmitting, to the base station, a first message including the selected preamble by using a sequential beam-sweeping method, transmitting a third message for a connection request for uplink data transmission when receiving, from the base station, a second message responding to the transmitted first message, and completing a random access channel operation when receiving a fourth message responding to the transmitted third message.
