KOREAN
The East Asian Languages and Literatures Department’s Korean program offers a major and a minor, both designed to equip students with oral and written proficiency in Korean and a deep understanding of Korean heritage. Many students in the Korean program study related fields including art history, business, fine arts, international affairs, religion and women’s, gender and sexuality studies. Our alumni have chosen careers and graduate study in fields including diplomatic service, international business, intelligence, defense, journalism, law and medicine.
The Korean culture industry — K-pop, K-drama, films and television shows — has exploded onto the global stage, gaining recognition around the world. Alongside its popular culture, the geopolitical significance of Korea's strong economy and international relations with its neighbors (particularly with North Korea) calls for educated members of the workforce who understand the language, history and culture of the country and its people.
