The Asian Studies Program at Muhlenberg College offers students the opportunity for multidisciplinary study of Asia, integrating perspectives across the humanities, social sciences, and arts. Asian countries and cultures play an influential role both in international affairs and in our own local communities. Through coursework and independent study at Muhlenberg, as well as through direct and active engagement with people and ideas in and from these regions via co-curricular activities and study abroad experiences, students gain a more nuanced understanding of Asia and Asian cultures.
