CLASSES
All students can take 1 or 2 three credit courses at CNU.

All students may take one course in Korean language either at the beginning level for students with no previous Korean language experience, or at a higher level based on their courses completed or placement exam. The School of Business at Chonnam National University is accredited by AACSB, making credits easier to integrate into majors in the Perdue School of Business. Students interested in advancing their Korean language skills may take multiple levels of Korean language during one semester. Students earn SU credits and GPA. Students should consult with their major department advisor about the integration of the courses offered into the minor or major. The Center for International Education will assist students to integrate courses into the general education curriculum.

SU students can earn courses for the interdisciplinary minor in East Asian Studies during one semester on the Salisbury Abroad: Korea program. For more information on the East Asian Studies minor, see the Area Studies Minors website.

HOST UNIVERSITY
Chonnam National University is one of 10 key national universities in the Republic of Korea. It was founded in the early 1950s as South Korea emerged from the Korean War by joining together a number of local universities. Today it is home to almost approximately 35,000 students including over 1,000 international students. The University is located in the metropolitan center of Gwangju at the southernmost end of Republic of Korea.
