My experience at Dongguk University during this short term program was amazing. I would highly recommend this to any student who was interested. By participating in this program I experienced a greater understanding of international criminal justice systems and found it to be exciting and rewarding. I met other international students who share similar interest to me and we were able to explore Korea together. Field trips and cultural experiences hosted by the university were great and I would highly recommend.
