Subject: Opportunities for Undergraduate Students Completing HASS-S Requirements

January 14, 2020

For undergraduate students looking to complete the HASS-S requirements as well as engage with and learn from renowned foreign policy experts, please consider the following courses for spring.

Please note these courses also fulfill course requirements for MISTI, and Minors in foreign languages and international studies.

 Register now for The Rise of Asia 17.53 HASS-S HEX<http://student.mit.edu/catalog/search.cgi?search=17.53&style=verbatim&when=*&termleng=4&days_offered=*&start_time=*&duration=*&total_units=*>  taught by Professors Richard Samuels<https://polisci.mit.edu/people/richard-samuels> and Vipin Narang<https://polisci.mit.edu/people/vipin-narang>.

The focus will be on the social, economic, political, and national security problems of India and Japan--two of the largest economies in a dynamic region with the potential to shape global affairs.

Each topic and country will be examined from the perspectives of history, contemporary issues, and their relations with one another and the United States.

This course meets the HASS-S requirement<https://registrar.mit.edu/registration-academics/academic-requirements/hass-requirement> for all undergraduates. It also may be applied as a MISTI<https://misti.mit.edu/> course requirement and toward a minor in applied international studies<http://catalog.mit.edu/interdisciplinary/undergraduate-programs/minors/applied-international-studies/>. It also counts toward a 21G minor in Japanese.

Register now for Chinese Foreign Policy 17.407 HASS-S HEX<http://student.mit.edu/catalog/m17b.html> taught by Professor Taylor Fravel<https://polisci.mit.edu/people/m-taylor-fravel>.

The course will explore China’s international ambitions; whether Xi Jinping has changed the country’s diplomacy; if the US and China are rivals or enemies, and more.

The course counts toward the HASS-S requirement, a minor in applied international Studies<https://polisci.mit.edu/undergraduate/minor-applied-international-studies>, and as a course requirement for MISTI programs.
