Graduate Student Conference
The CU Boulder Asian Studies Graduate Association (CUBASGA) will hold fully in-person on the CU Boulder campus on February 22 & 23, 2025.
We invite current graduate students from across the US and around the world engaged in research on Asia, particularly in the fields of Chinese and Japanese studies, to submit proposals on their research across fields, such as: Anthropology, Art & Art History, Literatures, Economics, Ethnic Studies, Ethnomusicology, Film Studies, Geography, History, Linguistics, Philosophy, Political Science, Religion, Sociology, Theatre & Dance, Urban & Regional Planning, and Women’s Studies.
The conference will include keynote addresses from two prominent scholars in Chinese and Japanese studies: Professor Ronald Egan (Stanford W. Ascherman, M.D. Professor, Stanford ³Ô¹ÏÍø) and Professor David Atherton (Associate Professor of East Asian Languages and Civilizations, Harvard ³Ô¹ÏÍø). Keynote speakers and ³Ô¹ÏÍø of Colorado faculty will be on hand to provide feedback to presenters throughout the conference. Above all, the conference is a forum through which graduate students, researchers, and faculty are able to engage in dialogues of critical importance to the development of our respective fields, providing participants with opportunities to expand their academic perspectives as well as academic and professional networks.
