- 2017 AAS in Asia Conference
- When: 25 Jun 2017 - 27 Jun 2017
- The AAS-in-ASIA conferences are intended to be smaller size conferences than the typical AAS Annual Conferences. This conference gives our members and others interested in Asian Studies, who are unable to attend the Annual Conferences held in North America, the opportunity to participate on panel sessions and network with colleagues in a more intimate setting.
