SKKU

Noch ei Tag bis zum Abflug...
Doch zuvor noch ein paar Worte zu meinem Vorhaben. Ich fliege nicht nach Seoul, um mich dort 4 Monate auszuruhen, sondern ich werde an der Sungkyunkwan (SKKU)weiterhin Business Administration studieren.
Was ist die SKKU?

"Sungkyunkwan is synonymous with both tradition and innovation in education. The literal meaning of the University's name is 'an institution for building a harmonious society' of perfected human beings. The founding philosophy of Old Sungkyunkwan is needed as much as ever today, in an era of technological advancement that seems devoid of humanity. The University's faculty of more than 1,000 are committed to quality teaching and research, offering students a challenging environment for intellectual and personal growth.
Old Sungkyunkwan was founded over 600 years ago by royal decree to promote the scholarship in Confucianism. As a nation's highest educational institution, Old Sungkyunkwan went through vicissitudes with the country it served over the centuries. It would be misleading, however, to view the University merely in the context of its premodern history. What the University has achieved in the past fifty years meets and exceeds that of the five hundred years preceding our current century.
After World War II, with the emergence of the Republic of Korea, Old Sungkyunkwan underwent a renaissance as a private university. As Korea modernized and underwent social and economic reforms, the University grew rapidly to address the diverse demands of the advancing country. Though a long history alone cannot guarantee the excellence of an institution, the rich culture, which exudes from a long tradition, is surely a unique and valuable asset of the University. In addition, we take pride in the University's innovative spirit; as a result of the long efforts to place natural sciences on an equal footing with our strong foundation in humanities, we now operate two campuses: the Humanities and Social Sciences Campus and the Natural Sciences Campus.
Based on a highly successful partnership with Samsung who has generously funded several core initiatives, the University has been rapidly developing and prospering since 1996."
