Course summary

The MA Korean Studies is designed either to prepare the student for advanced graduate work in a wide range of subjects related to Korea, or as an end/qualification in itself. The programme explores the history, politics, art, music and literature of Korea, as well as providing opportunities to study the languages of the region. Students in the programme come from many countries and have a wide variety of academic backgrounds. Some have already studied, or lived, in Korea and wish to broaden their knowledge or understanding. Others wish to focus their previous training on the region, while others will come from Korea or another East Asian country wishing to study Korea from the perspective of a different culture and academic tradition. Knowledge of the Korean language is not a requirement of the programme. Language modules, however, are popular options.
