01 / Our story

Experience built
on the ground.

IEUM means “connection” in Korean.

Founded in 2012 by Eric Lee, IEUM builds on international education experience dating back to 2005 and first-hand life in Australia, Ireland and Malta.

Today, Eric works directly with Korean students and overseas education partners from IEUM's base in Malta.
