The Masters in East Asian Regional Studies is an English-language degree program with a social scientific, contemporary and interdisciplinary profile. The program offers research-focussed training for highly qualified graduates with BA degrees in political science, sociology, cultural geography or economics.

The principal focus of the MA teaching is the theoretical and problem-centered analysis of social, political and economic phenomena in East Asia, with an aim of deepening and enriching the capability of the student in assessing contemporary change, the challenges for the East Asian region and the implications of such developments for Europe.

The intensive development of three specific capabilities inform the curriculum of the MA program:

  1. the methodological skills, which students bring with them from their BA programs will be deepened and applied specifically to analyses of the East Asian context,
  2. the development of regionally specific, deeper disciplinary as well as broader interdisciplinary knowledge of East Asia and
  3. development of language skills in one of two East Asian languages (Chinese and Japanese).
