About Seoul Women's University and Its Vision
Seoul Women's University (SWU) was established in April 1961 by the Presbyterian Church of Korea to foster global female leaders with knowledge, virtue, and expertise under the Spirit of Christianity. Ever since its establishment in 1961, Seoul Women's University has played a pivotal role in Korean higher education as a pioneer in various fields, in particular its prestigious Bahrom Character Education Program. Seoul Women's University has come a long way in its short history to become globally recognized as one of Korea’s premier women's universities.
