Modern Asia
Asia’s population, economic power, cultural influence, political volatility, environmental impacts, and military threats make it the world’s most dynamic region, and its importance will continue to grow in the coming generations. Learning about it is more critical than ever. The minor in Modern Asia is designed to deepen students’ appreciation of the complexity and diversity of the region encompassing East Asia, South Asia, and the Middle East.
Students who focus on one country or region will also develop pan-Asian perspectives.
