The Graduate School of Pan-Pacific International Studies (GSP) was established in 1996 as one of the nine ROK government supported graduate schools of international studies. The ROK government at the time was implementing a nationwide internationalization
drive. As part of the campaign, the ROK Ministry of Education selected through competition nine institutions of higher education to train professionals in international affairs.
 
  Since its establishment, the GSP has proved one of the best graduate schools of
international studies in Korea. In October 1998, the GSP ranked at the top in the midway
MOE review. In October 1999, the GSP ranked at the third place in the MOE review of
performance. Out of the nine government supported graduate schools of international
studies, the GSP was the only institution that ranked continuously and consistently among the top three.

The Institute of International Education (IIE) at Kyung Hee is a specialized language and culture teaching institute which has some of the best instructors and newest facilities in Korea.

In 1993, IIE initiated its first Korean Language Program and was selected as an official institute for teaching Korean to foreign students.  These students have come to study in Korea on an invitational scholarship offered by our government since 1996.  Every year about 1,200 people from over 50 different countries attend IIE.

IIE helps foreign students become accustomed to both a different language and life style.  Furthermore, our "volunteer system" provides the foreign students with better opportunities to adjust quickly with the help of 1:1 Korean volunteers.

The Regular Program is a 16-week semester program with 15-21 class hours per week. The Korean Language Education course aims to fulfill international student interest in the Korean Language and culture. Therefore, for students who want to learn Korean Culture, this program includes the following elective courses: Korean Movies, Chinese Characters, Korean Music and Taekwondo.

In addition, the Department of the Foreign Studies offers conversation courses, advanced-level English courses and teacher training courses for people who want to maintain their competitiveness in a globalized world.
