Giving to the UCLA Center for Korean Studies


Serving more than 2,000 students each year, the UCLA Center for Korean Studies is the largest and most dynamic program of its kind outside of Korea. Our world-renowned faculty offers the widest array of university courses on Korea in the Western world, including classes in linguistics and literature, pre-modern and modern history, archeology, music and art history, geography, Buddhism, Christianity, and folklore. Coverage of traditional Korean humanities at UCLA is the strongest anywhere beyond Korea.

UCLA and the Center for Korean Studies are training the next generation of outstanding scholars for careers in the United States and around the globe.
