Seoul National University said on Thursday that male students in the school can now take a leave of absence if they have a child under the age of 8.
After revising the academic regulations, the university announced that both male and female students taking bachelor’s, master’s or doctorate’s courses in SNU can take a maximum one-year leave of absence for childrearing, starting this semester.
So far, only female students could take a leave of absence for pregnancy-related issues in SNU.
The university also decided not to add maternity or paternity leave into a student’s total period of leave for other reasons.
An official in the office of academic affairs in SNU said the new measure reflected complaints from “student-parents” who were having a hard time juggling studies and child care.
