The study of Asian history at UNC Chapel Hill has expanded significantly in recent years. Featuring a diverse faculty, the program provides an extensive selection of courses that, while covering different time periods and geographic areas, all aim to foster students' analytical thinking and comprehension of a region home to more than half the world's population. Faculty research and teaching encompass pre-modern eras, modern transformations, economic and business developments, sociocultural structures, gender dynamics, colonial and nationalist experiences, and global interactions. Course offerings span introductory surveys of subregions (South Asia, China, Japan) to specialized thematic studies (colonialism, gender issues, historical memory, the Pacific War). For graduate studies, Asian history can be pursued through two pathways: as a primary field for both MA and PhD candidates (approved as a doctoral field in 2007) or through the transnational lens of the Global History Program. Prospective students should review the Global History Program details for further information.
