Asian Studies Mid-April Updates

Advising Now! Event tomorrow!

As spring continues to roll across Maryland, it's also in full swing elsewhere around the world. Even if it's dreary today here on campus, you can always take a few moments to tune into part of this archived stream from China's CGTV channel of last year's scenery around the Huanghuacheng section of the Great Wall of China. 

For those celebrating this coming weekend, we wish you a happy Passover and a happy Easter! 

Advising and Registration for Fall 2022 are Ongoing!

Advising and registration for Fall 2022 is underway. If you have already had your advising appointment, great - thank you! If you still need to schedule one, that's okay! Learn more about signing up for Fall 2022 classes on our website, or check out our myUMBC notice. 

Remember: you must have your advising clearance from Dr. Oyen before you can sign up for classes. If you're not sure what classes you want to take, it's okay to think about it and complete your registration later - talk to Dr. Oyen about your options at your advising appointment! 

Tomorrow: Lecturer Candidate Presentation - 11am

We hope that you'll be able to join us as we welcome a faculty candidate to campus tomorrow. The candidate will give a presentation entitled "What is Asia?" at 11am in Fine Arts 558. Students are welcome to attend in-person or via WebEx online; in-person attendees will receive a free boxed lunch and, if they'd like one, an Asian Studies t-shirt. You can RSVP for the presentation on the myUMBC event page!
