2005 IACS Student Pre-Conference
The Student Committee of the Graduate Program in Culture and Gender Studies (Yonsei University) and the Korea National University of the Arts is pleased to inform you of announcement to open the 2005 IACS Student Pre-Conference in Seoul. This is the pre-event of the 2005 Inter-Asia Cultural Studies Conference (22nd July-24th July). All students from East, South East and South Asia are assured of a warm welcome and a friendly stay in Korea. We expect to discuss various issues from students’ perspectives as we did in Bangalore, India two years ago. In 2003 students from various regions of Asia had a wonderful chance to share their academic interests and to enhance our understanding in each other. We believe that 2005 IACS Pre-conference will make another step to create an active academic community in Asia.
