The Midwest Conference on Asian Affairs welcomes proposals for panels, roundtables, individual papers, and workshops from all disciplines focusing on East and Inner Asia, Northeast Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Asian Diaspora, as well as comparative, inter-Asian, and global Asia topics. Faculty, graduate students, undergraduate students and independent scholars from all regions are encouraged to share their work, receive feedback, and network at the conference.
