Asian Studies students,
The CAHSS Dean's office has SUBSTANTIAL scholarships available to support study abroad. A semester or a year abroad will advance your language study exponentially! And you will gain an important credential--foreign experience--when you are looking for a job after graduation.
See here for more details:
Feel free to stop by the director's office (FA 546) to discuss or email me (vaporis@umbc.edu).
Last year only one--yes, one--student from Asian Studies applied--and that student received a scholarship. Don't miss this unique opportunity (written by someone whose career was shaped by a semester abroad in Japan)!
