Study associations
A study association is a good way to combine study-related activities with pleasure. Every faculty has one or more study association.
Many study programmes have their own study association. For more information take a look under the faculty tab, or speak to the administration of your study programme.
Study associations are for students from a particular degree programme and focus on the academic aspects of student life. Students who are members of a Study Asociation support each other during their study period at Leiden, and organise course-related activities, such as lectures, seminars, field trips or excursions.

Who are we?
ASIA is the study association for the MA and ResMA Asian Studies. Founded in 2021, the Asian Studies International Association (ASIA) is a dynamic group of students at Leiden University who share a passion for all things Asian. Whether you are interested in rich history, diverse cultures, fascinating art, or the exciting politics of the continent, there is something for everyone at ASIA.
Our Goal
ASIA aims to provide a fun, interactive and supportive environment for all students of Asian Studies, where members and non-members can deepen their knowledge of Asia and create lifelong connections and friendships – one event at a time.
In the past we had diverse activities mixing social and study related events. Together we explored Asian art galleries and museums, visited Asia continent embassies, attended interesting lectures, watched Asian movies, competed for amazing gifts in monthly Pub quizzes, and so much more.
Join us?
