BA Asian Humanities

Asian Humanities majors choose their main language concentration in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, South Asian, or Southeast Asian languages, while simultaneously acquiring broad cultural competence by taking courses from at least four countries or areas across Asia. This provides students with a combination of strong language skills and the knowledge necessary to engage with various aspects of multiple Asian societies. Students who complete this major have the linguistic and cultural competence to work in various fields related to Asia, including business, finance, trade, journalism, diplomacy, cultural institutions and nonprofit organizations, education, and academia.
