About This Course
The Comparative Asian Studies PhD programme will provide leadership in Asian Studies graduate education to transform our understanding of Asia from within the region. The Programme aims to nurture future Asian Studies specialists through a unique curriculum that combines the breadth and ambition of trans-regional perspectives with the depth and intensity of area-studies methods.
What You'll Learn
The Comparative Asian Studies (CAS) PhD programme is a research-based, interdisciplinary degree programme designed to provide graduate students with a competitive and comprehensive training in the study of Asia.
The CAS PhD programme offers an intensive course of study that promotes a trans-regional understanding of Asia. Students will be exposed to ideas designed to shift attention beyond the conceptual boundaries of area-studies scholarship towards the dynamics and processes that connect the region’s vast peoples, cultures, and worldviews.
Qualified candidates will have training in at least two geographical/cultural areas (South, East, Southeast, Northeast, West Asia) enabling them to explore the varying methods, debates, and issues that have shaped those respective fields comparatively. Every candidate will also be exposed to scholarship and conversations drawn from Inter-Asia Studies that highlight the interconnectedness within the broader Asia region.
