About and Intensive Language (Korean), MA - at SOAS University of London
The MA (discipline) and Intensive Language (Korean) suits students wishing to embark on research degrees with a focus on Korea. Also, professionals wishing to pursue careers directly related to Korea, including government departments (of both the UK and other countries), and in firms requiring particular skills and knowledge related to trading, investment and promotional interests outside Europe.
The two-year language pathway is directed at students who want to engage with Korea in a professional as well as academic way, as the intensive language course would enable them to reach a high level of Korean language proficiency.
This two-year programme (or four years part-time) will provide students with the opportunity to combine Masters' level training with intensive Korean language study in order to acquire the skills necessary for future professional or research careers. The programme will enable students to engage with the subjects of their Masters' programme in the context of Korea through Korean, to engage with primary Korean sources and data and to conduct research and professional work in Korea.
