Students learn to evaluate the existing literature in Asian American Studies, to analyze a variety of data on Asian Americans, to conduct original research, and to participate in internships and social justice issues.A minor degree, Honors program, and community studies courses are also available to students. The Department provides a well-rounded, interdisciplinary curriculum which engages approaches from traditional disciplines, including history, sociology, anthropology, and literature, as well as from interdisciplinary scholarship in women's studies, law and society, public policy, global studies, social movements, cultural studies, and film and media studies.  Black Lives Matter Solidarity Statement from the UCSB Department of Asian American Studies    Department of Asian American Studies 5044 Humanities Social Science Building, MC 4090 University of California Santa Barbara Santa Barbara, CA 93106-4090Tel: 805-893-8039 Fax: 805-893-7766Campus Maps Directions
