Korea is a place of dynamic contrasts, of rapid industrialization and technological development alongside a beautiful and rich traditional culture. AU students now can experience this extraordinary country firsthand through study abroad at Yonsei University.

As the oldest university in Korea, Yonsei University was first established in 1885. Yonsei University is considered the leading institution of higher education in Korea , as well as the most international university in the country. Yonsei's Division of International Education and Exchange (DIEE) was established in 1966 to provide study opportunities for overseas university students. On the undergraduate level, the division offers a study abroad program taught in English designed to give a broad introduction to Korea in its Asian and world setting.

Yonsei University offers an excellent 6-week summer program which gives AU students the opportunity to study abroad and take 2-3 courses. The International Summer Session (ISS) is an opportunity to experience and study Korean and East Asian culture in depth.
