The Korea Research & Engagement Centre of Western Australia is WA's premier Korea-focused research and engagement centre located at Curtin University in Perth.

Established with support from the Academy of Korean Studies, the Korea Research & Engagement Centre of WA is a hub for Korean Studies teaching and research in the Perth metropolitan area and Western Australia, aiming to train future scholars in Korean Studies through a strong focus on facilitating postgraduate and postdoctoral research opportunities, as well as research-led teaching. The KRC also welcomes affiliate members from outside Curtin University to collaborate on Korea-focused projects and we frequently host events aimed at bringing together Korea experts, as well as industry and public sector partners across our region.

In addition, the Centre seeks to foster collaboration among researchers engaged in Korea-related research in West Australian higher education institutions, and connect them with key stakeholders in the WA business community, state government and non-profit organisations with Australia-Korea interests.
