Introduction
About The School
Established in 2008, the Semyung Graduate School of Journalism is the first graduate school for journalistic professionalism in Korea.
We provide courses for personal enrichment to each student based on a practice-oriented curriculum, which also empowers students to comprehend humanities, social sciences, and ethical standards. In doing so, we aim to help students become competent journalists. We also offer various scholarships, including free on-campus housing for all students.
Our faculty members have years of field experience as outstanding reporters, columnists, and producers in Korea's major print and broadcast media. They also obtained their academic degrees from leading universities in Korea and abroad, making them uniquely qualified in both practice and theory. Through a one-on-one coaching system with students, faculty members help each student create their future career plan and find ways to achieve it.
We now have more than 300 graduates working in journalism and related fields. Our graduates hold pivotal positions in the media industry, including newspapers, broadcasters, and internet media outlets across the country.
