(1, 2, 3)
The Committee of Asian Studies offers an interdisciplinary major and a minor to provide students with the opportunity to increase their knowledge of the world’s largest, most populous, and most diverse continent. Students enrolled in the Asian studies major or minor will find that the course offerings furnish excellent preparation for careers in business, government, journalism and public relations, and teaching.
To minor in Asian studies, students must complete a minimum of 18 credits, no more than 6 of which may have the prefix of their major. ASIA 200 is required of all Asian studies minors. At least 12 credits must come from Category A (Exclusively Asia-Focused); 3 credits of an Asian language course may apply to the Category A requirement. No more than 3 credits from Category B (Substantially Asia-Focused) may be applied to the minor.

Asia-focused classes from the major. Students may, but do not have
