Joining a Community

Students enrolled in the Minor in South Asian Studies benefit from the lively discussions and vibrant community at the Centre for South Asian Studies (CSAS) and the broad array of networks and resources at the Asian Institute.   Established in 1981, The Centre for South Asian Studies fosters academic research, teaching and public discussion on South Asia, and through these, global questions.  Now a key unit of the Asian Institute at the Munk School for Global Affairs, and supported by the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, it is home to an award-winning core faculty across the University of Toronto's three campuses.

The Centre is an international hub for critical conversations across the humanities and social sciences on South Asian worlds, both inside and outside the subcontinent. Undergraduates as well as graduate students, and the broader public, benefit from the wide range of distinguished speakers hosted by the Centre, as well as CSAS-sponsored conferences and workshops. CSAS programming poses critical questions via subcontinental worlds, emphasizing at once the particularities of the historical, cultural, political and economic processes of the South Asian region, and its role as a rich lens for making sense of the globe today.  An archive of our wide range of events and speaker series can be found here.

More resources coming soon.
