From July 5^th to July 16^th, 2010, the Kyujanggak Institute for Korean Studies will host its 4^th Summer Workshop for graduate students. This is a wonderful opportunity for graduate students and junior scholars to gain exposure to diverse disciplines of Korean studies and scholars outside their institution's focus, as well as an opportunity to network with future colleagues. The workshop will focus on research methodologies in Korean studies through the examination of documentary and digital resources. The two-week comprehensive program consists of morning lectures and afternoon seminar discussions on subjects such as art, classical and contemporary literature, pre-modern and modern history, Contemporary Korean issues, sociology, Confucianism, and Buddhism. All lectures will be conducted in Korean, and reading materials and handouts as well will be in Korean. Participants will also have the chance to present their initial research findings or discuss research strategies in an informal presentation session. Also, participants will be able to consult with the lecturers on their research, and other assistance may be provided if needed (e.g. in preparing presentations).
