• The ultimate educational goal of the Economic Major is to train experts with economic thinking and analytical skills on human economic life. In fact, it is intended to cultivate experts who can interpret and explain the past and present of the Korean economy and suggest the desirable direction of the Korean economy in the future.

To understand the universality and specificity of the Korean economy, economic systems of major countries and economic development theories are studied from a comparative perspective, along with studying the North Korean economy. Unlike other graduate schools, the Economics Major at this graduate school puts a lot of effort into nurturing experts who can teach Korean economy overseas. For this purpose, it is recommended that international students in Korea study economics and learn a lot about Korean culture and Korean modern history.
