Study Abroad Guidelines

The East Asian Studies Department strongly recommends study abroad to maximize language proficiency and cultural familiarity. Because study abroad provides an unparalleled opportunity to study a culture from the inside, students spending a semester or year in China, Japan, or Korea will be required to prepare an essay of 10 pages on significant issues confronting their host country, based on information from local newspapers or magazines, television, or personal interviews.   No departmental credit will be granted for study abroad without satisfactory completion of this assignment, whose details should be worked out with the student's adviser.

Formal approval is required by the study abroad adviser prior to the student's travel. Without this approval, credit for courses taken abroad may not be accepted by the East Asian studies program. If studying abroad is not practical, students may consider attending certain intensive summer schools approved by the East Asian studies program. These plans must be worked out in concert with the program's study abroad adviser and the student's dean.

Representative Careers

What do alumnae do after graduating with a major in East Asian Studies? Many of our majors go on to graduate school to pursue careers in higher education, law, pharmacy, medicine, investment, banking, and economics; others join the job market after leaving Bryn Mawr.
