Abstract

From the academic year of 2009, a good many Korean Universities introduced the Open major Division. Based on 10 years experience of teaching and advising in the University College at Yonsei University, we believe that developing and applying a suitable major exploration program should be the key factor for successful settlement of the Open major Division. Yonsei University s major exploration curriculum, program, and advising system were introduced as a guideline to the major exploration process. The freshman survey and the first-year experience assessment in Yonsei University revealed that the freshmen long for a high quality education, professional lecture sessions, advice on choosing majors and career developing, and so on. Universities introducing the Open major Division should establish the major exploration process to meet the students expectation.
