Its emphasis on the study of Armenians and Armenia within a regional and world context reflects the global and interactive nature of Armenian history. As it works to expand into a multi-disciplinary, endowed academic Center, it seeks to cultivate further a distinctive focus on the Armenian Diaspora and Armenian Women and Gender. With a strong programming history and demonstrated community support, the Center contributes to the diverse intellectual and cultural life of the campus and the wider community.
