The Department offers a minor in Asian Languages and Cultures, giving students a chance to study an Asian language without electing the full concentration. Students wishing to pursue an academic minor in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures must develop a specific plan for its completion in consultation with a departmental advisor. Appointments are scheduled in the department.
Prerequisites to the Academic Minor: Two years (fourth-term proficiency) in an Asian Language.
Academic Minor Program: At least 15 credits, chosen in consultation with and approved by a departmental advisor, in the following categories:
-
Two terms of an Asian language, taught in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures ( Chinese, Filipino, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Sanskrit, Tamil, Thai, Tibetan, Urdu, Vietnamese ) at the third-year level or above.
-
Asian Studies: At least two courses on Asian culture that will familiarize the student with the contexts of the language the student has studied; one of these courses must be at the 300-level or above.
At least six of the credits must be elected at the University of Michigan or through an overseas program associated with the UM.
