With the help of two international KS Seed projects (funded by KSPS [Korean Studies Promotions Service], the AKS, Korea) since Jan. 2018, UPEI’s Asian Studies program continuously offered and taught a large number of KS courses with quickly-growing student interest and course popularity, thereby strengthening and enriching our Asian Studies curriculum and program delivery in the Faculty of Arts.
