Plan Outline

The Korean Studies plan offers a range of skill and content based Korean language courses together with non-language based courses on Korea. The plan has a flexible entry-point policy, which allows students to enrol in the language program that builds on their existing language skills.

Plan Structure

A major sequence in Korean Studies comprises 42 units of credit, made up as follows:
(1) the completion of at least four consecutive language courses;
(2) the completion of KORE3001 or higher;
(3) the completion of at least one course from Korean Culture Studies.

Placement Information

Students with prior knowledge of Korean or background speakers sit for a placement test in order to gain entry to an appropriate language course.

For students admitted in their first year of study to KORE2000 or higher on the grounds of ability and/or previous study, such courses will be counted as Level 1 courses in terms of degree requirements.
