In recent Korean society, the importance of developing the potential of children and adolescents and strengthening their competencies in school education centered on entrance exams is being emphasized as a national task. In particular, childcare teachers, adolescent guides, and adolescent counselors are one of the promising fields for future careers and are specialized fields with great potential for growth.

We aim to nurture students who can contribute to the nation and the local community with research skills on competent children and adolescents. Students who have completed this course can acquire national qualifications such as a first-class adolescent guide, adolescent counselor, and childcare teacher. In addition, they can play an active role as a researcher who can lead the academic development in the field of child and adolescent studies and as a practical expert who can contribute to the desirable growth and development of children and adolescents and explore policy alternatives.
