Seoul National University EU Centre

Seoul National University

The EU Centre of Seoul National University (SNU EU Centre) was established in March 2006, with the support of the European Commission. It was awarded by the European Commission as the first Centre of Excellence in South Korea in 2011, and was the first recipient of a Jean Monnet Chair in Korea.

The SNU EU Centre is the first research centre to be awarded by the European Commission as the Center of Excellence in South Korea since 2011. The centre strives to develop a national and East Asian hub for EU studies. It will coordinate the education, research and networking activities on EU affairs, and mobilize all human and financial resources through its diverse partnerships, and thereby maximize a synergy effect.

Today, Europe can be hardly understood without the knowledge on the European Union. In that regard, SNU EU Centre is planning a number of actions not only in research and education, but also through various kinds of conferences, seminars, forums, and publications. SNU EU Cente will help the Koreans to understand these dynamic developments of the EU, and will help the mutual understandings between Korea and EU through exchange programs with EU experts and scholars.
