Educational Goals

The Department of International Trade aims to develop professional and competitive human resources. Globalization, characterized by openness and liberalization, has fundamentally changed production methods and consumption patterns and has brought about a revolution in information and communication technology revolution. We require human resources that not only have the intellectual ability to adapt to the current situation but also the ability to lead the change of the times. Our students will be equipped to proactively respond to the paradigm shift brought about by globalization and the information & communication technology revolution in international trade, foreign economic relations, international business, and international management.

The Department of International Trade pursues simplicity, diversity, and practicality in realizing its educational objectives.

1First, simplicity is a value that should be pursued to enhance student learning and maximize educational outcomes. In addition to completing major courses, our students are expected to achieve a certain level of proficiency in one or more foreign languages and computer science.
2Second, diversity is an advantage that comes from the discipline of international trade and the characteristics of its students. The Department of International Trade will meet the diverse academic and educational needs of students by combining faculty members with diverse academic backgrounds and interdisciplinary curricula. International Trade is a discipline that is based on the foundation of economics and business administration, with the field of international trade, which deals with practical contents related to foreign trade transactions, and the field of foreign regional economics, which is related to the foreign trade environment, as the superstructure.
3Third, the training and research of the Department of International Trade is aimed at practicality. Accordingly, we will expand opportunities for on-the-job training based on industry-university partnerships and strengthen exchanges and cooperation with foreign universities. Expanding the educational horizon through industry-university cooperation will enable students to adapt and apply their academic knowledge in the real world. In addition, the exchange student program and study abroad program will provide students with the experience of realizing globalization and the information and communication technology revolution.
