The present invention provides a method for manufacturing an electrode for a secondary battery, the method comprising the steps of: (i) mixing an active material, a binder, and a conductive material together with a solvent and kneading the mixture to prepare a pasty slurry having a solid content of 70 to 90% by weight; (ii) placing the pasty slurry on a current collector; and (iii) passing the current collector with the pasty slurry placed thereon through a rolling apparatus to roll the same while forming an electrode coating layer on the current collector.
