As of Spring 2007, there is no major or minor offered in Asian Studies, although they are in development. The program currently is based primarily on the Chinese and Japanese language programs, the first of which is newly created and the latter of which was transferred from the Modern Languages and Literatures Department. However, the Chinese and Japanese language faculty still are nominal members of that department.
