Master of Arts [M.A] Asian and Asian American Studies
The program encompasses six fields of study:
- Asian American and diaspora studies
- Global Asia
- Korean studies
- Japanese studies
- Chinese studies
- South Asian studies
One of the greatest strengths of our Asian and Asian American studies program is its emphasis on interdisciplinary scholarship and collaboration among faculty and students. This sort of community building is reflected in the intense, creative and pioneering scholarship emerging from the department, and in how the program positions graduates well for entering into PhD programs or industries such as education, business, government, public policy, NGOs and arts and culture.
