Held in Korea June 26-July 7, 2013
The Korea Society is pleased to announce openings for American educators to participate in the 2013 Summer Fellowship in Korean Studies to be held in Korea June 26-July 7, 2013. The application deadline is April 10, 2013. Fellows participate in a 12-day, expenses-paid study tour of Korea during which they visit a high school, museums, and sites of historical and cultural interest. Lectures on Korean history, culture, politics, economics, arts, and language are provided by university faculty. This unparalleled learning experience and unique opportunity for extensive travel within Korea is open to middle-school and high-school social-studies and world-history teachers.
Thanks to the generous support of the Korea Foundation, the 2013 program can accommodate 40 American educators. Three days of the study tour are also sponsored by the Freeman Foundation. Applicants are solely responsible for the cost of domestic airfare to either JFK or LAX.
Preference will be given to applicants who have a demonstrated ability to adapt to new cultural settings and meet the academic demands of an intensive study/travel program. Some prior familiarity with Korean culture and history also is highly desirable.
