Through an integrated curriculum of vocabulary, grammar, speaking, listening, writing, and reading, this course enables students to: 

1) To communicate in Korean at a high-advanced level at formal  discourse circumstance; 

2) To debate on current political, social, economic and cultural issues; and,

3) To understand Korean culture through movies, dramas, literary works. 

You can learn various theories related to golf. Learn the theories of history, competition, rules, manners, etiquette, etc. systematically. Also, you can learn good swing through practical training by following personal quarantine rules in the outdoor playground. Unlike other golf classes, we can actually practice golf swings outdoors. Topics include Basic set of golf address, Grip and back swing, back swing and downswing, Down Swing with weight shifting, Powerful impact with finish, Approach and chip shot(Around the green in the practice), Driver full swing, Long iron practice, and Putting Basic. 

The first part of this course is designed to help students to understand the modern theories of financial markets and banking. The second part of this class investigates how the central bank affect the real economy and how the monetary policy must be conducted. Finally, we study the recent global financial crisis.

This course investigates how and the extent to which economic actions and outcomes are socially shaped, if not determined. It first covers a series of theoretical materials that argue for the so-called structural or relational “embeddedness” perspective and then moves on to discuss a wide variety of empirical examples, especially those related to network analysis. The course pays close attention to some of the key underlying assumptions regarding individual decision-making processes. More specifically, the focus is on the ways in which social networks (broadly defined) surrounding human actors affect the ways in which they think and behave and how this process ultimately creates and reinforces economic inequality.

In the post-industrial and information age, societal problems are increasingly complex and require systems thinking and design approaches that can deal with their complexity. This course introduces a systems design approach to complex social-ecological-technical problems. The scope of the course encompasses the theories, methodologies, and case studies related to systems thinking and design. This class is designated as a Social Innovation Certificate (SIC) course. The course contents and practices are related to social innovation and solving social problems. The Institute of Higher Education Innovation (IHEI) may collect student assignments and course contents for further purposes. For more details regarding the SIC, please visit the IHEI’s website,http://ihei.yonsei.ac.kr.

This course covers first- and second-order ordinary differential equations and their applications and modeling. Topics include direction fields, separable and non-homogeneous ODEs, integrating factors, Bernoulli equations, and Euler-Cauchy equations. Additional topics include power series method, Legendre Polynomials, Frobenius method, and Bessel functions. The course also provides a brief overview of linear algebra topics to assist with matrix eigenvalue problems and basics of linear systems. Other topics include Laplace transforms with related topics, such as inverse, s-shifting, derivatives, integrals, Heaviside function, t-shifting, convolution, integral equations, and solving system of ODEs.

This advanced journalism course reinforces theoretical knowledge and provides practical application of print news writing and broadcast news production based on the western journalism in English. The first part of the semester focuses on learning theories, while the second half of the semester, students work on news writing and broadcast news. 

The course examines Seoul, deploying a palimpsest as a heuristic device, exploring the layering of buildings and paved roads and bridges, as well as the history of those who lived in the different urban spaces over time. Through accretion, these layers create both a complex and vibrant story that remains only visible in a contemporary form where the old still bleeds through the layers of traces that partially remain. Particular attention is given to a wide variety of digitally mediated narrative practices (e.g., Naver blogging, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, etc.) and the institutions that control these technologies. The course looks at the many facets of this diverse and dispersed digital ecosphere where just about anyone with access to a computer or mobile device can integrate digital images, social media, recorded audio narration, video clips, and music alongside a range of delivery channels with meta-information (e.g., hashtags, rankings, and comments by users) to reach a broad audience. This course illustrates how such sites are layered with many significations and complicated histories. It intends to offer a more compelling narrative of Seoul, not merely as a “republic of apartments,” but a place of crucial bearers of cultural memories and a vast archive of stories of a given group’s past.

This is an introductory and interdisciplinary survey course on modern Korean history. The course is designed to present a wide ranging written and visual materials and texts on the topic, with the goal of introducing students to various experiences, phases, and issues of modern Korean history. Our goal as a class is to both familiarize ourselves with the larger historical events that shaped the last century for Korea and its people, and to come to our individual, critical understanding of their significance and relevance for today.

This course explores the visual arts of Korea from the early 20th century to the present. It covers the period beginning with the Japanese colonial rule of Korea and continuing through the Korean War, Korea's division into North and South, industrialization, democratization, and globalization. The course discusses the historical trajectory of Korean visual art produced in South and North Korea and by the Korean diasporas, examining how it has shaped and reflected each period's political, cultural, and socio-economic changes and concerns. Artworks in diverse media, including painting, sculpture, and other alternative art forms, such as installation, video art, and performance, will be considered, with particular attention given to their place within the global art scene.
