Overview


The University of Southern California's involvement in East Asian Studies dates to the founding of a Department of Asiatic Studies in 1911, but USC's interest in East Asia itself goes back further, as the School of Theology trained many missionaries for service in China, Japan and Korea. This site is an attempt to bring together and preserve records of the development of USC's East Asian connections.
