[South Korea] Keimyung University – Student Exchange Program for Fall Semester 2021

Warm greetings from Keimyung University in South Korea!

Keimyung University originated from Keimyung Christian College, founded in 1954 by Reverend Edward Adams, an American missionary of the North Presbyterian Church of the United States, and by Reverends Choi Jaehwa and Kang Ingu, two local leaders of the Presbyterian Church. The founding principle of Koreans being firmly anchored in Christianity was to be the guiding principle for their concerted efforts. 1978 marked the beginning of a new period of rapid development, the year in which Keimyung became a university. As of March 2003, Keimyung had more than 27,000 students and more than 2,400 faculty members and staff in 25 major institutions, 68 departments in 11 faculties and 20 universities, 13 graduate schools, 34 attached institutes, including Dongsan Medical Center and 17 affiliated research centers.
