| Dr. Sei-whan Cho established Jeonju Kijeon Women’s
College in 1973. However, its origins can be traced back to Kijeon
Girls' High School which was established by Miss Jenkin, an American
Presbyterian missionary, in 1902. In opening the two-year college
Dr. Sei-whan Cho sought to provide leadership training for professional
women. The College has always been seeking to train the career-oriented
women to get specialized knowledge for their future jobs and by
doing so; we provide the nation and community with highly skilled
professionals needed to meet the demands of economic growth. The
College is the central institute in the region for the women who
are yearing for the best education! |
