The Korea – EU ICI ECP is an educational cooperation between the EU and the Republic of Korea in the field of higher education. The consortium of the KDI School, Seoul National University Graduate School of International Studies, ESSEC Business School, and KU Leuven collectively known as the GLIMPSE (Global Leaders in Management and Policy in South Korea and Europe), has been selected to participate in the program and starting from 2014, Korean students will be able to study at all four of the institutions across Korea, France, and Belgium to gain two master’s degrees with funding support from the EU and Korean government.

A student will have the opportunity to study at one of the European partner schools for an academic year to gain an additional degree, as well as short-term studies at the SNU-GSIS and the other, non-degree European partner school. The student will receive tuition waiver from the partner school, as well as full return airfares and living costs for the duration of the academic stay in Europe.

Additional information on the program, including eligibility requirements, detailed information of the benefits, and application procedures will be announced in the near future as the four institutions continue discussions to make this program an exciting experience for the students.
