The Institute of Asian Research (IAR) at the University of British Columbia is a research institute founded in 1978 and has been the foremost research centre in Canada for the inter-disciplinary study of Asia. With a broad geographic reach extending to China, India and South Asia, Japan, Korea and Southeast Asia, the Institute conducts research and teaching in policy-relevant issues informed by language and area studies. The Institute has played a central role in building UBC's excellence in research, teaching and community liaison in matters pertaining to Asia. The Institute has pursued a rich and productive research agenda on many aspects of the human experience in Asia. The Institute's (Master of Arts Asia Pacific Policy Studies ) (MAAPPS) program offers graduate students advanced training in policy analysis and research on current issues relevant to the Asia and Pacific Rim regions. Functioning as a "boutique policy school" the MAAPPS program combines applied learning elements with academic research to train future policy-analysts and policy-makers. The Institute also serves as a catalyst for inter-faculty and inter-departmental programs and projects on Asia, and has been a vehicle for building connections between Asia-specialist faculty at UBC and non-specialists who are working on Asia-related matters. The Institute contributes significantly to UBC's cooperation relationships with local community interests on Asia-related matters. The Institute hosts five research centres: (Centre for Chinese Research ), (Centre for India and South Asia Research ), (Centre for Japanese Research ), (Centre for Korean Research ), (Centre for Southeast Asia Research ).
