EALC courses focus on three geographical areas--China, Korea, and Japan. Owing to the fascinating interplay of tradition and modernity that is characteristic of these areas, the courses we offer provide students with a rich foundation in the languages, literatures, cultures, histories, and significant social institutions that define East Asia.
