CIEE: Seoul Arts and Sciences
The CIEE: Seoul Arts and Sciences program provides students an environment in which to study at a top-ranked Korean university and experience life in Seoul. While participants enroll in Yonsei University courses, CIEE organizes co-curricular programs designed to provide a deeper understanding of Korea. Program participants take courses in English and Korean through the Underwood International College (UIC), a division of Yonsei University.
“It was very valuable to have had the experience of living abroad and to have met so many people from other countries. I had no idea what Asia was like in general until I went and now I have a much greater understanding of the Korean perspective. It is also very relevant currently to understand the roots and complexity of the North Korea situation.” - Riley W. '18
