Undergraduates in the College of Arts and Sciences,
the Carroll School of Management, and the Lynch School of Education
can enroll in the Asian Studies interdisciplinary minor. Here
they have the opportunity to take courses in several departments,
including English, Fine Arts, History, Philosophy, Political Science,
Psychology, Slavic and Eastern Languages and Theology. In
addition, Asian Studies faculty often provide formal and informal
advice for individual student research projects and study abroad.
The program sponsors lectures and other activities on campus, including
a monthly seminar inviting scholars in a variety of fields to present
their work. For more information, see http://www.bc.edu/schools/cas/asianstudies/
Students also have the opportunity to declare
a minor in Chinese within the Slavic and Eastern Languages department;
the minor concentrates on acquiring proficiency in the modern language
and knowledge in aspects of Chinese culture and literary tradition,
and requires a minimum of six one-semester courses, including two
in modern Mandarin Chinese above the intermediate level and four
courses in Chinese culture and literature. See http://fmwww.bc.edu/SL/SL.html
for more information.
The following BC faculty members research China
and/or regularly offer courses that deal with the culture, history,
language, philosophy and politics of China and the Chinese diaspora.
In addition, courses with China-related content can also be found
in departments such as English, fine arts, sociology and theology
– check departmental web sites for more detail. This
