Announcement of Selection for ‘Wonkil Lee Scholarship’
(Undergraduate & Graduate Students)
The ‘Wonkil Lee Scholarship’ fund was established in 2009 through a donation from the children of the late Bernard Wonkil Lee, brothers Deok-seon Lee and Deok-hyeong Lee, to honor the spirituality and legacy of the late Bernard Wonkil Lee, who practiced the spirit of humanism throughout his life while cherishing a faithful heart toward God and trust and respect for people. Accordingly, we intend to provide support through the “Wonkil Lee Scholarship” to discover and reward current students of our university who have the potential to grow into ethical leaders while practicing humanistic values. We ask for your active support and applications.
