Curtin University is pleased to be the first university in Australia to offer a full Korean Studies major fully online to Curtin Korean Studies and via the Open Universities Australia (OUA). Korean Studies major graduates will have a comprehensive understanding of the culture, history, and society of the Korean peninsula and its people, providing them with insights into the complex relationships between different cultures and nations. No prior language experience is required. There is also a Korean Studies specialisation available to Curtin University students. You can find more details about the major and specialisation on Curtin's website.
