KUSEP(Korea Univ. Student Exchange Program) - General Student Exchange Program
 
An accredited member of the International Academic Exchange Committee (IAEC), Korea University has been preparing a variety of international programs for the interest of international undergraduate and graduate students. Korea University has established extensive links with many universities internationally through its student exchange program, which was developed as part of its internationalization process. This program now takes Korea University students to Australia, Canada, China, Germany, Japan, New Zealand, Russia, USA, UK and various European countries to study for one or two semesters at 23 exchange universities, 5 partner institutions, 4 educational organizations and 2 research institutes.

Korea University also has very extensive academic links with over 200 ISEP member institutions around the world and exchanges undergraduate/graduate students annually with various ISEP member universities on the basis of reciprocal benefits. In 1987 Korea University became a member of the International Student Exchange Program based in Washington D.C., Over the past decade, many Korea University students have enjoyed studying abroad on ISEP exchange and have benefitted a great deal from the rich variety of high quality educational environments abroad as well as the intercultural experiences with students from various international backgrounds. Likewise, the in-coming international students have had the unique chance of enriching their scope of knowledge and understanding involving a foreign education and the various aspects of society, culture and tradition at Korea University.

Based on the past rewarding experiences and joys interacting with international students, KUSEP is now putting more effort into further developing its benefits and program offerings, especially the International Education Curriculum and intercultural activities with local students. All interested International students are cordially encouraged to visit the Korea University campus to learn about Korea and Korea University¡¯s unique tradition of educational philosophy and ever enriching learning environment. While studying abroad as an exchange student at Korea University, students will be making a great contribution to international education as a valued friend of the University.

For those students who are interested in studying on exchange in Korea, Korea University has been offering its unique study abroad opportunities through its student exchanges with ISEP (International Student Exchange Program) member institutions and all other exchange universities around the world. Every Spring and Fall semester students from exchange universities can apply for the Korea University student exchange program to study for a semester or a year as a non-degree, short term visiting student. Under the KUSEP, exchange students have not only the opportunity of learning the Korean language, but also can study regular academic subjects taught in English or in Korean. Upon completion of the exchange study, the credits and grades earned on exchange at Korea University can usually be transferred to the home university, depending upon each respective University's regulations regarding study abroad programs.
