The College of Liberal Arts offers a general liberal arts education in the area of humanities. The program is designed to help students develop their ability to think critically and creatively in a variety of academic disciplines.
The college currently has four language and literature departments in English, French, German and Korean. Plans are also under way to accommodate students in other major liberal arts areas.
Department of English Language and Literature
The educational goal of the Department of English Language and Literature is to cultivate in its students a scholarly and critical attitude toward literature and to foster competence in English language ability. To this end, the English department's curriculum places equal emphasis on British-American literature, English linguistics and practical English. Also, the lectures given by native instructors help students to have a better command of 'living English.' In addition, students perform an Anglo-American play once a year.

Department of Korean Language and Literature
The Korean language and literature provides the basis of all major studies in the university. Korean major students prepare themselves to become scholars of Korean literature or Korean linguistics. The curriculum is divided into three areas: Korean linguistics, contemporary Korean literature, and classical Korean literature.
Students take part in field trips to learn the traditional basis of our language and literature and hold an annual academic festival.
The primary goal of our graduates is to continue their study at the graduate level, or to become engaged in teaching, publications, and the mass media.
