In support of global engagement, creativity and critical knowledge and research, the Graduate School of East Asian Studies is organising a series of lectures by international scholars for the academic year 2023-2024. This series of lectures is an opportunity to listen to and discuss with seven internationally renowned lecturers, while at the same time combining scientific data and knowledge, multidisciplinary approaches and research tools and methods.

These conferences help to reinforce the cross-disciplinary and international dimensions in the training of students who are destined for high-level studies, coupled with an excellent command of an oriental language (Chinese, Korean, Japanese or Vietnamese). It is particularly aimed at Master’s students in Asian studies or other scientific disciplines related to the East Asian region, as well as doctoral students.
