PROFILE OF THE DEPARTMENT

6

In 1964, the Department of East Asian Studies began as the Centre of Chinese

Studies in the University of Delhi. Japanese Studies was introduced in 1969 that

expanded the centre to the Department of Chinese and Japanese Studies. The

incorporation of Korean Studies in 2001 resulted in the new nomenclature as the

Department of East Asian Studies. The Department offers three post graduate courses: an

MA in East Asian Studies, an MA in Japanese Language and Literature and Ph.D. in East

Asian Studies. The Post-graduate courses in the Department focus on an inter-

disciplinary approach to the study of the region. Language is a compulsory component of

this programme and students are required to learn one of the three East Asian languages:

Chinese, Japanese and Korean. This programme enables students to have comprehensive

and integrated knowledge of the subject and the language concerned.

Please note that without clearing the language papers, the students would not

be able to obtain the MA EAS degree.

Further, the Department offers Post Graduate Courses in Chinese, Japanese and

Korean languages, designed for students who have an undergraduate course.
