Yonsei's Founding Spirit

Yonsei University cultivates leaders who embody the spirit of truth and freedom. In 1885, Yonsei's founder chose our founding philosophy from a passage in the Gospel according to John: "If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

Yonsei's Philosophy

Yonsei University serves as the "alma mater" (fostering mother) of all arts and sciences to nurture leaders who will contribute to society in a broad, ecumenical spirit of Christian teaching epitomized in its motto of “truth and freedom.”
We will carry forward the cultural heritage of our various civilizations and cultures of the world, leading the human effort towards the advancement of scholarship through creative thought and critical thinking. Moreover, we continue to promote a commitment to justice and to inspire courage, to serve our neighbors wholeheartedly and to contribute to the prosperity of humankind. Yonseians will exercise their leadership to accomplish this mission and to realize our goal of standing proudly on the world stage.
