The Pyongyang University of Foreign Studies is a five-year university in Pyongyang, North Korea, specializing in language education.

History

The university was split off from Kim Il-sung University in 1964.[1] North Korea's state-run Korean Central News Agency gives its foundation date as 15 November 1949.[2][3] It does not have as high a reputation as those of Kim Il-sung University's foreign languages division, which trains members of the political elite; most graduates go on to become working-level diplomats or work in the intelligence service.[4]

Structure

In total, 22 languages are taught at PUFS. The university has separate colleges for students of English, Russian, Chinese, and Japanese; the so-called "Ethnic Languages College" offers instruction in a further 18 languages: Hungarian, Arabic, Malay, Khmer, Thai, Lao, Persian, Hindi, Urdu, German, Bulgarian, Czech, Polish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, and Spanish.[5]
