My name is Marzhan from Kazakhstan and I am majoring in business administration. I volunteered in Uzbekistan in summer vacation. For the first time, foreign students went on the overseas volunteer activity to celebrate our university’s 60th anniversary. I was very happy to be a member of the group of 6 foreign students.When I applied for this program, I expected a lot. I had an interview and waited for the result. One Friday, one of my friends called me and congratulated me on my success. I could not believe it.In the first meeting, a staff member of the Office of Student Welfare and Career Su
My name is Haram Park, and I am a 2nd year student studying in Seoul National University, majoring in international relations and political science. I left Korea when I was about two years old, off on a journey which would take me to Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, and finally, the Middle Eastern country of Jordan. Most of my childhood memories are associated with that place, where I spent a total of eleven years, beginning from the second year of elementary school to the year when I received my high school diploma. If there is one lesson that I have learned during my time abroad, it would b
When I applied for the exchange student program, I really wanted to go to Japan, especially Tokyo, because Tokyo is the capital city of Japan. Therefore, I hoped to know Japanese, Japanese culture and society, and everything about Japan more easily than in any other city. After I prepared to go to Japan, I left Korea for Aoyama Gakuin University in Tokyo. For 11 months, I met many Japanese such as a famous creator of ads, a musician, a designer, and an ordinary housewife who likes Korea. They taught me the society of Japan that I couldn’t learn from books. Among them, I want to talk about one
Every single day I spent at Keimyung University was amazing. Starting a new life somewhere unknown is always exciting. My new life in Keimyung University started with excitement and anxiety, and it ended up with satisfaction because of many new experiences I had with my friends. I would give advice to go to Keimyung University if any of my friends wanted to go to Korea to study. While I’m writing this article, I feel thankful to all the people who made my every single day happy.That first impression of Keimyung University was simply huge. Because the university I study in has only a few majors
My name is Gilroy Middleton, and I am a Belizean fulltime marketing major student in the Ph.D. program of the Business Administration Department. I would like to commence this piece by saying "Thank you" to everyone that has made and is making my time here at Keimyung University and Daegu a memorable and culturally enrichinglife experience. This would include the faculty and staff at the Korean Language Center, the staff of the International Affairs Office, the staff of the Graduate School, the faculty and staff of the Business Administration Department, the members and officials of Keimyung A
Four months have already passed since I came back to Korea. I cannot forget my life and memories in Japan, for it was the first time I lived on my own. Through this article, I would like to give some tips to students who want to stay in foreign countries alone. In 2011, I was just a junior in Keimyung University. I woke up early in the morning, went to school, and took classes and exams. I was beginning to think this was not my dream campus life. At that time, I read an article about working holidays in the Keimyung Gazette. I said, “That’s it!” and I decided to go to Japan. The working holida
After having an orientation with the sponsor in charge of the students in the Work, English, Study program in New York, I started to study at the City University of New York at the beginning of September. Because I was studying and working a night shift, I never finished my homework and I always dosed off during classes. As usual, I was catching up on my sleep before class, and I heard my professor start to read an essay aloud. The overwhelming expressions made me think it was written by a professional, but praise to the student who wrote it proved me wrong. As she read aloud each verse, my mi
After finishing military service, I had concern about my future life. I didn’t know what I should do for that. I wasn’t good at reading, listening, writing and speaking English even though my major is American Studies. I just knew English is such an important language because of globalization. Thus, I wanted to study English using a couple of ways such as a working holiday, studying abroad and being an exchange student. After I met my seniors who already experienced those kinds of ways, I was sure that an exchange student program has lots of advantages compared to other things. I had to study
