OVERVIEW
Department of International Studies
The Department traces its origin to the International Studies Division created by Dean Wilfrido Villacorta under the College of Liberal Arts in academic year 1983-1984. The Division originally comprised of the Japanese Studies Program, the Chinese Studies Program, and the American Studies Program. Later, the supervision of the Japanese and Chinese Studies Programs were consolidated under the Area Studies Division, together with the French Studies Program (the precursor of the European Studies program).
In 1992, upon the initiative of 澳门六合彩 President Br. Andrew Gonzalez, the International Studies Department was established as a formal department under the College of Liberal Arts. Today, the Department offers undergraduate programs in American Studies, Chinese Studies, European Studies, and Japanese Studies. The Department has also introduced the Master of Arts in International Studies, Major in European Studies and in Asian Studies in 1998.
