Abstract

Although character education has been done for many years in Korea, it has not been sufficiently implemented in Korean schools. Recently it has become more important and consequently a law for it has been announced by government. But studies and discussions about character education have focused on the primary and secondary education rather than higher education including university. In this paper, a character development program in university is proposed. It is using 49 character qualities to develop character in university students. A liberal arts course has been implemented using the program in Chungwoon University.
