Putzar Director, Oriental Studies Collection Ju-yen Teng The Department of East Asian Studies offers instruction in the study of the languages, cultures, and civilizations of China and Japan, Asian humanities and religions, and Asian-American studies. Programs of study may emphasize the language, linguistics, literature, history, thought, religion, or society, ancient or modern, of one or more cultural areas. Courses related to East Asia are also taught in the departments of Anthropology, Economics, History, Media Arts, and Political Science. The department offers the Bachelor of Arts, Master of Arts, and Doctor of Philosophy degrees with a major in East Asian studies. Undergraduate majors may specialize in China or Japan, or in discipline-focused studies of South and East Asian subjects. Many departmental courses satisfy general education and special requirements set by other colleges, departments, and programs. Consult the Graduate Catalog for information on the graduate degree program. The undergraduate major: Completion of CHN 402 or JPN 202 or equivalent Chinese or Japanese language, and a minimum of 34 units beyond the first year of language, including a 3-unit senior requirement. An East Asian studies concentration in an interdisciplinary studies major requires completion of 24 units in the department. The student's program of study for either major must be devised in consultation with the departmental undergraduate advisor according to departmental guidelines. The supporting minor may be chosen, with the consent of the advisor, from outside the department or from another area of specialization within the department. The undergraduate minor: Completion of 20 units in the department. Minors may focus on one East Asian language or culture, on one disciplinary approach, on one theme in East Asian studies related to courses taken from one other department (split minor), or on special student needs. The program of study must be devised in consultation with the departmental undergraduate advisor according to departmental guidelines. A teaching minor for College of Education majors requires at least 9 units taken from among the following courses: CHN 142, 174, EAS 270, JPN 144, 272, and at least 9 additional units from the department selected in consultation with the departmental advisor. The department participates in the honors program. The courses listed below are grouped by areas of specialization within the East Asian studies major. For purposes of appropriate placement, enrollment in all language courses is based on performance in previous language courses at the University of Arizona and/or placement exams given and evaluated under the supervision of the departmental language coordinators.
