Get ready for an unforgettable experience at AAS-in-Asia 2024, the conference that brings Asian Studies to a more intimate and engaging setting. Designed specifically for scholars and enthusiasts of Asian Studies, this event offers an incredible opportunity to participate in panel sessions, network with colleagues, and explore the latest research in a smaller, more focused environment.

AAS-in-Asia 2024 is a joint collaboration between the prestigious Association for Asian Studies and the Universitas Gadjah Mada. While it may be smaller in size compared to the Annual Conferences held in North America, this conference packs a punch with its exciting features. You can expect a diverse range of sessions, thought-provoking keynote speakers, captivating book exhibits, and delightful receptions.

For those who are unable to attend the Annual Conferences located in North America, AAS-in-Asia provides a unique chance to dive deep into Asian Studies within a select country within Asia and connect with like-minded individuals. Whether you’re a seasoned scholar or a passionate student, this event promises valuable insights, meaningful discussions, and the opportunity to expand your professional network.
