MA Asian Studies
East Asia's rich history, vast population and diverse cultures make it a fascinating area of study. Its growing economic power and influence also make it an important pathway to employment.
The M.A. Asian Studies provides a global academic context for understanding the rise of Asia from within and without. It equips graduates from Asia with a capacity to understand
and more effectively engage global, particularly Western reactions to the rise of Asia in international relations and multinational trade. It equips graduates from Europe with an unparalleled ability to navigate international organizations and multinational companies based in Asia and operating globally.
Bringing together students from across the European Union and Asia in Ireland, an outward looking, culturally diverse country, and the last English-speaking European Union nation, this programme provides a special collaborative space for considering the place of Asia in our contemporary world.
