Structure of the Concentration

The concentration in Asian American Studies requires five courses:

  • one introductory gateway course at the 100- or 200-level
  • three electives that meet the following, non-mutually-exclusive, requirements:
    • one must be a core elective
    • one must take a transnational, diasporic, or comparative ethnic studies approach
    • one must be at the 300-level or higher
    • two must be taken in at least two different divisions of the college
    • In addition, up to one course may be taken while studying abroad or away
  • a 400-level senior seminar in which students will pursue a capstone project
