Experts who know about multicultural society are needed more than ever in this era of racial, ethnic, and cultural diversification.

The Dept. of Multicultural Studies in Gangneung-Wonju National University was established to respond to these demands by educating students to develop the theory of multiculturalism and the practical foundation systematically and, through doing so, nurture multicultural professionals in Korea. We also cultivate our students to become experts who can devote themselves to the international development fields and actively work overseas.

Through the course we offer, students may have a chance to acquire the level 2 qualification of social worker and level 2 of multicultural society specialist. In addition, they can work in multicultural, immigrant-related government agencies or private institutions, international development cooperation, social welfare-related institutions, and educational welfare-related institutions. Also, they can further continue to study in the graduate program as a researcher related to multiculturalism, immigration, and international development cooperation.
