[@mariachukh636]

@@DARITVKOREA Thank you for your reply 😊 I was actually wondering how big are the classes at Ewha GSIS? The university where I’m completing my Bachelors degree has very small classes (15-30 people), which I find very helpful. So it’s also one of my criteria for choosing graduate school. I have already checked out the curriculum at Ewha, and I’m really considering applying!

[@DARITVKOREA]

Thanks so much for the great feedback! It’s great that you have small class sizes at the undergraduate level, and I completely agree that it’s something you would definitely want in a graduate program. For required theory and practice courses, you can see probably see upwards of 20 students. For other classes that I teach, I normally have between 10 and 15 students. My smallest class (advanced topics, normally Ph.D. students and advanced Master’s students) was three students, so I have had a wide range even within my own classes. In terms of student:faculty ratio, you would be very hard-pressed to find a GSIS program that is more competitive than Ewha (trying to be as objective as possible ^^). Hope this helps!

Thank you so much for making such videos.. giving specializations of a major in Korean Universities help to make a comparative analysis on reasoning out the decision to chose it over studying it in your own country. It's a request but could you make such video for the Psychology major too or get any professor from Ewha in the video to explain the reasons of why choosing to study Psychology at Korea is a good decision cause statistics available on the internet don't do justice to give reasons why it could be a good decision 🙏🏻🙏🏻

But my wish is to work in Korea after I visited this beautiful country as a volunteer at Winter Olympics. May I ask, please, if there are some opportunities for international students with Master's degree in IR to get some good work in Korea? Or is it better to choose the major into International business to get Master's degree which probably could increase a chance to get work in Korea?

I try to encourage you to pursue a field you are most passionate about, but I understand that you would like to link this to potential employment opportunities (and in general, there seem to be more for business).

Hello, Professor I have a question, I'll be really grateful to You for your help with that. I've been truly interested in the International studies for a long time. And I'm sure to make it to Ewha through GKS in future. I've gone through the requirements of Ewha GSIS, 2022 GKS-G. There, to get enrolled in GSIS, proof of English Proficiency is required; And I can not afford going out of my hometown to take IELTS, But I'm pursuing my bachelor's majoring in English one of my interest (languages) and my minor is Economics. To build up my experience and a good insight I'm working as a Literary Transletor as well for a retired professor (vice principal) and he's now a director of a company. And I'm a bright student since childhood. Not going too far, in my 9th grade I achieved 91%, 10th-85%, 11th-91%, 12th-92%, and in the 1st semester of BA my SGPA is 9.67/10 (96.7%) and In future I'll do better, InShaaAllah. And my University affiliated College is English Medium. And I've a doubt that "Do I still Need English Proficiency Proof?" ,I know that it's required but can I get a chance. My apologies for the long listed comment.

Hi! We have students through GKS who have different undergraduate and graduate majors. The feedback from those students was that it was helpful to show how your undergraduate major prepared you for the graduate school major (there should be at least some common features that would show continuity), and how this graduate school major would contribute tangibly to your future career. I wish you all the best! ^^

This video was so helpful thank you so much professor! I’m planning to apply for fall 2021 for a bachelors degree. I have a quick question about the business administration major, are the classes entirely conducted in English? I can’t speak Korean so if the courses would be in Korean would it mean I can’t take this major? As far as I know the international studies major is entirely conducted in English. One more question I have is would you recommend doing a bachelor in international studies or business? Thank you in advance Professor^^

[@DARITVKOREA]

I’m so glad you found the video helpful! If you’re applying for an undergraduate degree and need a program entirely in English, international studies would be the major for you. There are many business administration courses that are conducted in Korean, so it may not be a good fit. Lastly, I would suggest trying to get an idea about how you would like to use the degree in your future career. Although this may change over time, I always think it’s best to gravitate towards what you find interesting and fulfilling - but also what can be marketable in the global workforce. ^^

Hello Professor. Thank you so much for your all videos that motivating me to apply for Master in IB for Spring 2022 admission at Ewha University. Actually, I tend to take an IELTS exam again, but due to the pandemic, the council hasn’t decided to hold any exam in the near future yet.

Hello Professor, I know it's been 2 years but I have a few questions to ask. For the undergraduates, do we also study international business or is it just graduates? I meant under International studies do undergraduates study International business too?

[@greyvanya625]

Thank you so much for your helpful and wonderful insights about Ewha university, I actually wanna know that if I do my Bachelor's degree in international business in my own country and then through GKS scholarship if I apply for the professional graduate degree at your university will it get accepted, because I have read that GKS scholarship provides only International relations not business related programs as well as other science and technology related programs. Please help me with my conceptions!

[@DARITVKOREA]

I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! You would have to double-check if the GKS scholarship is available when applying to business/science departments, but it is certainly possible to apply for the Graduate School of Int'l Studies - which provides a Master's in International Studies, with concentrations in International Business, International Trade, International Relations or Development Cooperation. So the actual degree is for a Master's in International Studies, but it specifies your concentration among the four tracks. I hope this helps!

[@DARITVKOREA]

@@SnehaMariyaJoshy This will all depend on the student, but there is certainly no requirement that you would have to complete a Master's in your home country in order to apply for a Master's in a different field abroad (in this case, Korea) especially in the area you plan to study (it may be a different case, for example, in fields like medicine or engineering). If it is clear that you have the motivation to complete a degree overseas as well as the training necessary to keep up with the work, I would encourage you to apply directly after your undergraduate studies. You may also want to see if it would be helpful to work in a related area (either a full-time position or even internship/volunteer work) and see if you're still motivated to pursue the degree. As for asking questions, yes! Please use the KZbin channel for any questions you may have. ^^

[@DARITVKOREA]

Hello! I don’t know if it is a preference for specific majors, but it may be that some departments are better positioned to collaborate with the GKS program than others. There may also be a difference depending on which university you are looking at, so I’d definitely check with the GKS program and universities about this. ^^

Hello! This video was very helpful. However i have one more concern. Can students who have done bachelors in any major (ie: non business or IR subjects) can they apply? Like people with a degree in public administration or bba or mass communication etc?

[@DARITVKOREA]

Hello! Certainly, we have many students in our program whose undergraduate majors are different from their current ones. These students have been able to demonstrate that there is a strong rationale for switching directions (such as links with research interests and/or their future career). As such, if the move makes sense from a longer-term perspective, I would encourage you to apply even if you have a different undergraduate major. Hope this helps!

[@DARITVKOREA]

Hi! We have students who have graduated from undergraduate programs from around the world. In order to attend the graduate program, you would have to first complete the undergraduate program (or are scheduled to graduate prior to matriculating) -- but the evaluation committee does not give "preference" to any one candidate based on the location of your university. I hope that answers your question!

[@kathleenferrer9874]

Hi! New subscriber here! Became interested in international business upon watching your video! Is it okay to study International Studies major in international business if my undergrad course is fine arts major in advertising? :) Does the international business scope also cover environmental sustainability? Also if the topic is for example "how BTS conquered the world through marketing", is it also related to international business?

[@DARITVKOREA]

Hello and welcome! I’m so thrilled that you liked the video. ^^ In response to your questions: 1. Yes, there’s no problem if you have a different undergrad major. The most important thing is to demonstrate why you are interested in applying for this field (research, future career, etc.). 2. Certainly! That’s a very important aspect of international business and one area that our program has an advantage in over others in terms of coursework and research. 3. Indeed! What I would do is to hone the question even further so that it becomes a narrow, testable research question that fits within the literature. As you know, marketing is a broad field - perhaps you would look at specific marketing strategies and how this contributes to a key measure of success (for example, are you looking at number of fans? Revenues? Profitability? Billboard ranking?). Hope this helps! ^^

Hi Professor! 💜 I want to do my master's in international relations but I'm a little bit confused about this GSIS program. Does majoring in international studies mean we have to study every course like business, trade, etc or can I just call it Masters in International Relations?

[@DARITVKOREA]

Hello! The master’s degree is in international studies, but within the program, you choose one area of concentration. That major can be international relations, international business, international trade, or development cooperation. In our program, you can also minor in another concentration. So you do not need to study about every concentration, but you would focus primarily on courses within your major. I would encourage you to check the program brochure for details. ^^

For department/school-related scholarships, these decisions are made during the application process and (I believe) are merit-based. As such, you would not reach out to any faculty directly about this possibility. When it comes to the application, do your best to frame your experiences as convincingly as possible. It’s impossible to tell you whether you have a better chance of acceptance at our program vs. another program. ^^ Best wishes!

Hi! I'm not sure who you were speaking to, but there are many female students majoring in business at the undergraduate and graduate levels in Korea. I would encourage you to take a close look at the selection criteria for the undergraduate GKS program and if you don't feel you have a stellar academic record, then perhaps you can beef up your credentials through your non-academic track record. There are also lots of channels out there showcasing other students' GKS journeys, so do check those out. Best wishes!

[@DARITVKOREA]

Hello! All classes (100%) are taught in English for the International Studies program (the Korean Studies program may have some courses conducted in Korean). You should double-check with the program brochure about IELTS/TOEFL, but I believe it is possible to request a language waiver if you can provide documents that show your undergraduate training was conducted entirely in English (or if you carry a passport from a country where English is the official language). ** But I would ask you to check our program brochure and/or contact the administrative team to double-check!

Although there are no specific courses on education that I am aware of, many students have been able to explore education within the context of other development courses (for example, women’s education within gender mainstreaming). There have also been several students who have examined TVET or IT/digital education for women in developing countries for their master’s thesis (several of whom I have advised).
