Program Description
Asian Studies is a vibrant community of students, scholars, and faculty committed to a deep understanding of the peoples, politics, history, and languages of Asia. Through the rigorous study of languages, societal structures, and culture, students form a basis for understanding global issues and their impact within a region of Asia—Asia Pacific, China, Japan, Korea, Russia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia.
In this minor, students gain tools to help understand the cultural context of Asia. Students select Asia focused classes from across campus. This interdisciplinary approach allows students the flexibility to pair their study with other majors and minors across campus.
