Intermediate Korean II is the second course in a two-semester Intermediate Korean sequence, designed for students who have completed Intermediate Korean I (ASIAN-262) or possess equivalent proficiency. This course enhances communicative competence, enabling students to express themselves with greater fluency, accuracy, and confidence in both informal and formal settings while engaging with a broader range of personal, academic, and societal topics. Through project-based learning, students analyze and discuss societal and global issues aligned with their interests while developing critical thinking and analytical skills. Instruction includes interactive lectures, discussions, student presentations, projects, and group activities. Students also participate in hands-on workshops to engage with Korean cultural practices. As part of the Korean language sequence, this course prepares students for advanced coursework, study abroad, and the East Asian Studies major or the Asian Studies (Korean Language) minor.

Prereq: ASIAN-262 or equivalent. Students with equivalent backgrounds should contact the instructor for permission.

Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
