Why learn Korean?

If you're ready to learn an Asian language, try Korean. The Korean alphabet (Hangul) has a unique way of organizing its simple alphabet making it easy to learn. Learning the language can open future opportunities both professional and personal while gaining an appreciation of other cultures.

Courses offered

First-and second-year Korean language courses are delivered online throughout the year. Refer to the OSU Ecampus Schedule of Classes for current schedule information.

The Ecampus schedule of classes includes available courses for the current term and up to three future terms. Class offerings are continually updated and may be added, removed or rescheduled without notice. Check back frequently for current information.

Students who complete first and second year of Korean will be able to:

• Engage in simple to paragraph length discourse related to routine tasks and social needs.
• Write composition and summaries of daily lives and social needs.
• Identify and analyze components of Korean culture and compare/contrast of them with their own.

Korean courses are developed and taught by Oregon State faculty within the Department of World Languages and Cultures and all course material is delivered through multimedia instruction coupled with realistic learning objectives. Students will interact with their classmates through online discussion boards and interactive content to gain competency communicating in Korean. Online students receive the same curriculum and transcripts as our on-campus students.
