Department of Asian Languages and Cultures - Travel in Asia Numerous opportunities exist for overseas study of Asian languages and cultures.
Admission is based on national competition, and space is limited.
However, Michigan students have proven successful in gaining entrance to these programs. The overseas centers provide an opportunity to master spoken Chinese or Japanese and to improve reading and research skills. Limited financial aid is available from both the University and the overseas centers to students who are admitted. For information, contact the undergraduate advisor in Chinese or Japanese. The University of Michigan's Center for South and Southeast Asia is a member of several Southeast Asian Language consortiums that offer advanced language training abroad in Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, and Vietnam.
