Double Concentrating

Many East Asian Studies concentrators are double concentrators in other disciplines, from Applied Math and International Relations, to History, Modern Culture and Media, Comparative Literature, and beyond. Up to two courses (but only two) may be counted for both concentrations.

For questions about advising on your double concentration, please reach out to the DUS of East Asian Studies,  Lingzhen Wang.

How to Declare

  1. Review all concentration requirements and compile a course plan. 
  2. Find a time to meet with the DUS Lingzhen Wang. Plan to bring a copy of your draft course plan. The DUS will help determine if your plan of study meets the requirements for the concentration and  answer any questions you may have.
  3. Go to ASK (advising sidekick) to submit officially your concentration declaration.
