The Department of Korean History is committed to conducting systematic research on Korean history, from the ancient past to the present day, so that students can learn about the wisdom that created Korea's outstanding tradition and national culture. To that end, students delve into each period of Korean history through fieldwork and research on ruins and relics and receive history education that encompasses both theory and practice without relying too heavily on literature, which is achieved by designating fieldwork at historical and cultural sites as a mandatory course necessary for graduation. The only history-related department in Korea that publishes fieldwork sourcebooks, the KMU's Department of Korean History aims to prepare students to become visionary leaders with deep insight into the future gained through systematic learning and research designed to develop historical thinking and impart professional knowledge.
