The course aims to familiarize students with the fundamental aspects of the culture, literature, history, religion, and philosophy of the Korean Peninsula. Knowledge is presented through an interdisciplinary approach, with an emphasis on the interrelationships between the natural environment, history, socio-cultural transformations, and the most important achievements of Korean civilization. Students actively participate in classes through discussions based on the readings listed in the course syllabus. The course is delivered as a four-semester module, and students achieve all learning outcomes by completing the entire module. A discussion format is used throughout the course, supporting practical learning of the material through collaborative text analysis and workshop elements; the course combines lectures with presentations, discussions, and individual student work. As part of extensive independent work, carried out outside of class and in preparation for the exam, the student independently and systematically analyzes the provided teaching materials, develops identified topics, expands knowledge with additional sources, and consolidates lecture content related to the topics of the selected module. These activities include both critical reading of texts and independent organization, interpretation, and integration of acquired knowledge, which is an essential element of achieving the learning outcomes specified for the course.
