The MU Libraries, in partnership with the Asian Affairs Center, is hosting two visiting Korean undergraduate students for the next four weeks. The students are part of a group of Korean students visiting MU via the English & Professional Immersion (EPI) program sponsored by the Asian Center. Jina Yang and Taewoon Kim, both of Chonnam National University, Korea, will spend two days a week at the MU Libraries and gain exposure to how an academic library operates. Taewoon is a Journalism undergraduate and will spend time at the Journalism Library; Jina is pursuing a bachelors in library science and will spend time in Admin, Technical Services-Cataloging and Health Sciences Library-ILL.
The EPI program provides unpaid, not-for-credit opportunities for international students to improve their English and experience American culture. More information on EPI can be found at the MU Asian Affairs Center.
