The minor in Asian Studies consists of six courses. There is one required course, SL 263 Introduction to Far Eastern Civilizations. In addition, students must complete two language courses beyond the elementary level. The three remaining courses are electives but must be approved by the Program Director.
Students interested in the minor are encouraged to apply in their sophomore year. This allows students to take advantage of the special events to which students in the minor are invited, to plan their courses of study appropriately, and to take full advantage of study abroad opportunities in Asia.
