A ceremony honoring all graduate and undergraduate students who have completed the ASC Certificate during the past academic year (August and December 2011, and April 2012). Our students really appreciate seeing their professors and staff members as they complete their studies at Pitt, so please plan to attend.

Our guest speaker this year will be Dr. Thomas Rawski, Professor of Economics at the University of Pittsburgh

Our graduation ceremony will take place on Wednesday, the 25th of April 2012, beginning at 3:30 p.m. in the Lower Lounge of the William Pitt Student Union. Immediately following the ceremony there will be an informal reception to which you are warmly welcome. More than 70 students are receiving the Asian Studies Certificate this year! If you would like to see a list of their names in advance, please let me know.
