Highlights for the 2026-2027 Academic Year
Hello CSEAS Community!
The Council on Southeast Asia Studies (CSEAS) warmly welcomes you to campus for the 2026-2027 Academic Year. We are excited to share the wide-range of resources Yale has for the study of Southeast Asia—we invite you to visit our library collections, explore the Southeast Asia-related collections in the Yale University Art Gallery, enjoy (or learn to play) our gamelan, and participate in our events. We also hope you will check out our courses, from world-class language instruction in Filipino (Tagalog), Indonesian, and Vietnamese to a range of undergraduate and undergraduate courses across the humanities and social sciences.
