Innovative Programs
We help students combine their coursework in innovative and personalized ways to meet their career goals and individual interests.
We—the faculty and students of the Asian and Asian American studies program—are hurting. We are saddened, angry, mourning, and processing the campus shooting on December 6, 2023 that took the lives of three UNLV professors, Dr. Jerry Chang, Dr. Patricia Navarro, and Dr. Naoko Takemaru, and left another professor fighting for his life. We send our deepest condolences and offer of support to the victims’ families and our colleagues. Many of us were on campus that day, finishing our final week of classes, only to endure a harrowing experience that has left us shell-shocked, trying to make sense of it all.
