Mission

The East Asian and Chinese Studies faculty recognize the need for our students, most of whom come from West Michigan and its vicinity, to be well versed in cultures other than their own.  Faculty in the programs offer cross-cultural understanding and intercultural communication perspectives, allowing students to become well-rounded and well-grounded in their knowledge of China and East Asia as they find their niche in a demographically and culturally diverse society and an increasingly global economy.
