We are dedicated to cultivating specialists in Korean language and culture with superior-level proficiency in Korean by providing an immersive language learning environment, tutoring programs, one-year capstone program at Korea University, overseas internships, summer intensive domestic and overseas programs, merit and need-based financial aid, and so forth.

The KLFC emphasizes three pedagogical issues: learner-centered education, proficiency-focused instruction, and integration of Korean culture through Content-based Instruction courses so that students acquire both language and culture education. Linguistic and cultural activities supplement the pedagogical issues creating an education that has depth as well as breadth.

The KLFC closely cooperates with specialists in other academic disciplines through the Center for Korean Studies faculty in terms of curriculum and instructional materials development, joint advising sessions, joint innovative pedagogical and language acquisition research, workshops, and conferences.
