The master of arts (MA) degree in East Asian Studies offers an interdisciplinary and highly flexible program of study. With opportunities to take a range of advanced courses in the social sciences and humanities, students are able to tailor their programs to emphasize particular methodological and disciplinary approaches and to focus in depth on the region as a whole and on its dynamics in particular countries. Coursework and language offerings range from the ancient to the contemporary and allow students to prepare for a broad range of individual needs and career interests with a thorough grounding in the history and culture of the region.
Information on the undergraduate major in Asian Studies and minor in East Asian Studies can be found in the International and Area Studies section.
