About the program
New Jersey now ranks among the top three states in the country in terms of its Korean population. Among them are many newcomers or residents with limited or no English language skills who have immigrated to the United States from Korea.
For these individuals, the challenges of learning English and advancing their education while working are immense. In response to the growing number of employers interested in providing educational opportunities to their Korean employees, Fairleigh Dickinson has designed an exciting new Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree for Korean-speaking students that make it possible for these men and women to realize their dreams and potential.
