A sputtering method includes receiving etch time information for a first substrate detected in a dry etching process, calculating a deposition time for a second substrate from the etch time information for the first substrate, and executing sputtering for the second substrate based the calculated deposition time. The thickness of the thin film deposited on the substrate in the sputter device may be uniformly maintained by using etch end point information detected in an end point detection (EPD) device. A sputtering system comprises a sputter device for executing a sputtering process for depositing a thin film on a substrate by a sputtering method, an EPD device for generating EPD information including etch time information for the substrate for a calculation of a deposition time during which the thin film is deposited, and a controller for calculating a deposition time by using the EPD information, and for controlling the sputter device based on the calculated deposition time.
