Catholic Kwandong University is a private Roman Catholic university in Gangneung, Gangwon-do, reopened under the sponsorship of the Catholic Diocese of Incheon in 2014 after its predecessor Kwandong University closed. Its campus includes the Kwandong Hockey Centre used at the 2018 Winter Olympics.
Teaching runs from bachelor to doctoral level, with a health-sciences core of Medicine, Nursing, Physical Therapy and Radiological Science alongside Business Administration, Police Administration and Hotel and Tourism Management. A Korean language and culture programme supports students arriving without Korean.
Students who want a health-sciences degree in a smaller east-coast city rather than in Seoul get a full range of them here, up to doctoral level, on a campus with Olympic-standard facilities.
The Korean language and culture track means a student can begin the language and move into a degree at the same university.
