This webinar is for students based at universities in Asia who would like to learn more about the RSEA A.M. degree program and the HYI fellowship for this program. In addition to those in East Asia, we welcome students from South/Southeast Asia who are interested in studying East Asia to join us.

About RSEA: 

The RSEA A.M. Program at Harvard University is a vibrant interdisciplinary area studies master’s degree program designed to accommodate a wide range of interests and needs for graduate training in the languages, societies and cultures of East Asia. The program affords students interested in a professional career of engagement with Asia an opportunity to pursue a flexible and varied course of instruction related to their career interests; it also serves the needs of students who wish to enter a Ph.D. program but require further background training in the field of East Asian studies.
