Villanova University's interdisciplinary East Asian Studies program was launched in 2004. Today, we have a growing body of faculty across many departments, a large and growing number of courses offered in East Asian studies, and every year, new opportunities for study and research.

Check back often for updates — our newsletter is issued every month during the academic year and lists local events and talks, scholarships, jobs, travel opportunities, career information and news about our students and faculty.

Villanova University offers many options for study abroad either during the academic year, or during the summer. In many cases, some of the courses taken overseas in one of the Villanova-accredited programs may be credited towards completion of this concentration. Please consult with the director before embarking on a study-abroad program.
