Schools with an Asian-American Studies program...

<p>Hi...I'm looking for grad schools that have an Asian-American Studies program (if they exist, I'd love to get a PhD in this). But if not, can anybody tell me what field I should go into so that I can pursue a PhD with a focus on Asian-American studies? Thanks!</p>

<p>There aren't many Asian-American Studies graduate programs. The best one is probably UCLA's M.A. in Asian American Studies: <a href="http://www.sscnet.ucla.edu/asianam/graduate.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.sscnet.ucla.edu/asianam/graduate.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>There also are schools with certificates or concentrations in Asian American Studies like UC Irvine: <a href="http://www.asianamerican.net/centers.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.asianamerican.net/centers.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I provided the wrong link to UC Irvine's Asian-American Studies graduate emphasis. Here's the right link: <a href="http://www.humanities.uci.edu/aas/grad/grad.php%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.humanities.uci.edu/aas/grad/grad.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>But the directory link is helpful too: <a href="http://www.asianamerican.net/centers.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.asianamerican.net/centers.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Most scholars in Asian-American areas have PhDs in other disciplines. The most common are American Studies and Ethnic Studies, but some hold doctorates in History, Sociology, Religion, etc.</p>

<p>Thanks! ^_^</p>
