About East Asian Studies
Introduction to the East Asian Studies major.
The East Asian Studies Major is an interdisciplinary area studies program divided into three concentrations: China, Japan, and Korea.
While students primarily concentrate on one of the three countries, the major is intended to give students a broad, comprehensive perspective on East Asian societies and cultures. East Asia is one of the most important regions of the world today with its ancient cultures, growing economies, technological progress, and increasing role in global affairs. The economic and technological advances made in East Asia open up new opportunities requiring familiarity with the region.
