East Asian Studies - University of Arizona

The Department of East Asian Studies is dedicated to the study of the cultures and languages of China and Japan. The rich cultural heritages of the region are covered by courses in literature, history, society, religion and thought, linguistics and other aspects of culture. EAS also offers a wide range of courses in Chinese and Japanese language. Understanding the languages and cultures of these two nations--the second (China) and third (Japan) largest economies in the world--is essential for anyone working globally today.

EAS offers programs leading to the Bachelor of Arts (B.A.), Master of Arts (M.A.), and the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees with a major in East Asian Studies.
