Curtin Student Engagement

The KRC has supported New Colombo Plan Korea study tours since 2025. In 2026, 20 Curtin students joined the four-week WORK3006 Go Global program, combining academic learning, partner-university and industry visits, cultural immersion and professional internships in South Korea. The 2025 and 2026 programs received a 2026 Faculty of Humanities award for work-integrated learning and student employability.

This annual event is open to all Curtin university students interested in Korea and Korean Studies. The event provides an opportunity for students to meet with others that share their interest.

The KRC offers scholarships to current Honours and Masters students at Curtin University. The scholarships are awarded to students of good academic standing to support research on a topic focusing on Korea.

These workshops are designed to focus on core skills development among the Honours, postgraduate and early career school community. Over two days, students come together to discuss critical methodologies and common research techniques in the context of their research. Each workshop is led by a core staff member of the Centre and focused around their particular area of expertise. 

Held in the KRC office, these sessions introduce PhD and Honours students to key theorists relevant to Korean Studies scholarship.

A relaxed weekly space to ask Korean-language questions, practise conversation, get study advice and meet other learners. Everyone interested in Korean is welcome, and no preparation is required.
