 The
Program in East Asian Studies is an interdepartmental
plan of study directed by representatives of the program’s
cooperating departments: anthropology, art and archaeology,
comparative literature, East Asian studies, economics,
history, politics, religion, sociology, and the Woodrow
Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. It
offers an opportunity for a student to pursue the study
of an East Asian language and culture in addition to
a concentration in a traditional discipline. The undergraduate
certificate program provides internationally minded
men and women with basic competence in an Asian area
and enhances their understanding of Western civilization
through perspectives gained from the study of the non-Western
world. While the Department of East Asian Studies offers
a Ph.D. with specializations in East Asian languages,
literature, history, and civilizations, the Program
in East Asian Studies, through the cooperating departments
represented on its interdepartmental committee, arranges
for students in other departments to design individual
research programs in art, modern history, religion,
politics, and sociology, with principal focus on the
civilizations or societies of East Asia.
