Korean Studies at the University of Michigan

As the Center for Korean Studies expands, the depth and diversity of the curriculum in Korean area studies continues to grow, with a variety of courses in a number of disciplines offered each year. The program is particularly strong in the fields of Korean politics, modern history, economic development, Korean economy and finance, religion, and Korean film. In addition, the department of Asian Languages and Cultures offers a complete curriculum in Korean language covering four full years of modern Korean, and, after a few years of absence, intensive 10-week first and second year language courses are being held for the Spring and Summer semesters. Undergraduates now have the option of a B.A. concentration in Korean Studies, and graduate students may pursue a Ph.D. in Korean Studies in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures.
