ABOUT YONSEI UNIVERSITY
Being the oldest private university in Korea, Yonsei University
was first established in 1885 by Christian missionaries. Our
mission is to educate leaders who will contribute to humanity in
the spirit of “truth and freedom.” The 300,000 Yonsei alumni
who take this calling to heart can be found manifesting this
proud spirit from leadership positions around the world.
Yonsei’s main campus is ensconced in a spacious, picturesque
and natural setting located minutes away from the economic,
political, and cultural centers of Seoul’s metropolitan downtown.
Yonsei has 3,500 eminent faculty members who are conducting
cutting-edge research across all academic disciplines. There are
18 graduate schools, 22 colleges and 133 subsidiary institutions
hosting a selective pool of students from around the world.
Yonsei is proud of its history and reputation as a leading
institution of higher education and research in Asia.
MESSAgE fROM ThE VIcE PRESIdENT fOR INTERNATIONAl AffAIRS
The Yonsei International Summer School (YISS) opened its doors
in 1985 and since then, YISS has become an integral part of
campus life based on a unique blend of Korean and global
cultures. YISS continues to grow and evolve, accommodating
the needs of a rapidly changing student body and meeting the
challenges of a fast-paced global society.
The 2013 program has been revamped in order to highlight
growing interest in the arts, culture, and humanities while also
offering cutting-edge classes in management and economics,
global issues, history and social sciences, and science and
technology.
This summer, we invite you to experience the legendary
“Yonsei Spirit” and to join us for an unforgettable summer in
the heart of Seoul. You will make life-long friends, build new
networks, expand and deepen your academic and cultural
horizons, and experience life in one of Asia’s coolest, yet
largely undiscovered metropolis of 10 million. Make Yonsei
your summer home in 2013 and have the best summer of your
undergraduate journey.
