BIG GIVE IS OVER, BUT YOU CAN STILL SUPPORT YOUR FAVORITE PROGRAMS.
East Asian Languages & Cultures

Your support allows us to continue a rich tradition of teaching and research of East Asian languages, literatures, and cultures.

East Asian Languages & Cultures is the core department for East Asian humanities studies and home to the Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Mongolian, and Tibetan language programs. 

Our mission is to train students to understand the texts (written, visual, aural, and material) at the core of East Asia’s literary, religious, and philosophical traditions. Our curriculum centers on modern and classical forms of the languages, informed and engaged reading of a wide variety of East Asian texts in their historical and cultural contexts, and the development of effective writing skills and critical thinking. 

Please give today. Thank you for supporting the Department of East Asian Languages & Culture at UC Berkeley!
