Major South Asia Centers and Departments of South Asia Studies, with Departments of Religious Studies, in the US
This is a list of the schools in the US that have Title VI Centers or major South Asia Studies Centers. I’ve also given the addresses for their departments of S.A. Studies (or the equivalent area program), as well as the departments of Religious Studies. I’ve added the latter because of my own interest in the interaction between religious studies and South Asia studies.
