For students interested in
Korea-U.S. relations, there is an exciting opportunity to participate in the
Korea-America Student Conference (KASC)!
KASC is a student-led,
academic and cultural exchange program launched in 2008 to build closer ties
between young leaders in both countries. Each year, an equal number of students
from the U.S. and Korea are competitively selected to spend one summer month
together, studying and analyzing Korea-U.S. relations while visiting four
diverse regions in Korea. KASC emphasizes developing personal connections
between two distinct cultures gathered together in one place. The Conference is
an experience which will help you grow as leaders, build mutual understanding,
and forge life-long friendships.
During the length of the Conference,
you will have the opportunity to participate in:
-
Roundtable discussions
on a topic pertaining to both the U.S. and Korea.
Topics are now available online!
-
Fun and educational field trips and lectures.
Travel to Gangwon-do, Seoul, Jeju
Island, and Busan.
Site descriptions are available online!
-
Receptions and networking opportunities with
prominent individuals.
-
Final Forum
to present Roundtable ideas to KASC
alumni and the general public.
Students
from all fields of study are welcome!
No previous experience in Korean language, or studies, is required.
You can also send an email with any of your questions to: info@iscdc.org
Applications
