The Global Asia Studies (GAS) program offers interdisciplinary undergraduate degrees that allow students to deeply explore Asia within its evolving global and diasporic framework, both historically and contemporarily. Through these programs, students gain expertise in innovative Humanities approaches and theoretical perspectives drawn from multiple academic fields. GAS connects scholarly research on Asia with Toronto's thriving Asian communities via engaging co-curricular and extracurricular activities that foster meaningful experiential learning grounded in social responsibility. The curriculum covers diverse themes including gender studies, migration patterns, religious traditions, economic development, and nationalist movements across regions from mainland China to Tamil societies.
