Center for East Asian Studies
The Center for East Asian Studies traces its beginnings in 1960 to a group of professors at the College of Liberal Arts. Since then, the Center has fostered interdisciplinary studies and joint research among related academic fields in the humanities and the social sciences, engaged in academic exchange with institutions abroad, and served as a focal research center for new scholars in the field of East Asian studies. Areas of research include Korean studies and the languages, history, philosophy, religions and aesthetics of East Asia (China, Japan, Vietnam, the Manchurian region and Mongolia).
Principal Activities
Journal: The Donga-Mun-Hwa published annually. The journal features articles on Chinese literature, Asian history and Asian philosophy, as well as other research topics on East Asia. It is the oldest periodical dealing with the history of East Asia in the country.
