Seoul Christian University

Seoul Christian University is a private university located in Seoul, South Korea.

This institution of higher learning has a rich history that dates back to 1937 when it was first established as a theological seminary by an American missionary. The primary goal was to provide theological education grounded in Christian principles. Over the years, it evolved and expanded its academic offerings to include a wide range of disciplines beyond theology. In the early years, it primarily focused on training pastors and Christian leaders. However, as the needs of Korean society changed, so did the institution. It began to offer programs in other fields such as social welfare, business administration, and education, all while maintaining its core Christian values. A significant turning point came in the 1980s when it merged with another theological institution. This merger strengthened its academic foundation and allowed for further growth and development. In the late 1990s, it was officially recognized as a university, marking a significant milestone in its history.

Throughout its existence, this institution has remained committed to providing a holistic education that integrates academic excellence with Christian faith and ethics. It has produced numerous graduates who have gone on to make significant contributions to Korean society in various fields. Today, it stands as a testament to the enduring power of faith-based education. It continues to nurture students who are not only academically competent but also possess strong moral character and a deep sense of social responsibility. The institution's history is a story of resilience, adaptation, and unwavering commitment to its mission of providing quality education rooted in Christian values.
