Bachelor in 글로벌한국학전공

The Global Korean Studies major (글로벌한국학전공) at Kyungsung University introduces students to the history, language, society, and culture of Korea from an international perspective. Programs in Korean studies typically cover Korean history, contemporary Korean society, language study, popular culture, and Korea's political and economic development, often placing these topics in a wider East Asian or global context. Students examine how Korea has changed across different periods and how its culture, economy, and diplomacy connect to the rest of the world, including through media, trade, and international relations. Graduates of Korean studies programs often pursue careers in fields connected to Korea's global presence, such as international business with Korean companies, translation and localization, media and cultural industries, tourism, diplomacy, and education. The global framing of this particular major also suits students planning to work as a bridge between Korea and other countries, whether in government, business, or cultural exchange roles. Some graduates continue to graduate study in Korean studies, Asian studies, or related area-studies fields. This bachelor's degree is offered at Kyungsung University in Busan, South Korea, with instruction conducted in English, making the program accessible to international students studying Korea without first needing advanced Korean-language skills. The program spans four years, with intakes in March and September. Studying Korean studies in Busan gives students the chance to experience Korean culture and daily life directly while working through an English-medium curriculum that surveys the country's history and its role in the wider region.
