Centers

Alongside Chinese Language and Cultural Programming, Asian Initiatives is home to two centers: the Soga Japan Center and the Timothy Light Center for Chinese Studies. The Soga Japan Center advances the knowledge of Japanese history, culture, business, science and technology within the Southwest Michigan Community. The Timothy Light Center for Chinese Studies enhances the work of faculty and graduate researchers at Western Michigan University who have expertise in some field of Sinology, or teaching or research interests in China.
