Human migrations in the formation of early Chinese empires

The HKBU Jao Tsung-I Academy of Sinology is honoured to form a partnership with the Institute of Oriental Studies (IOS), Russian Academy of Sciences and devise a five-year plan together, to forge a stronger bond between the two institutions, and by extension the two sinological communities, in terms of teaching and research while developing exchange and cooperation opportunities in these areas.

From October 2021 to July 2022, JAS and IOS, together with the Research Centre for History and Culture (Beijing Normal University - Beijing Normal University-Hong Kong Baptist University United International College), will co-organize an online monthly seminar series titled “New Perspectives on the Old World.” Speakers from world-leading institutes will take turn as keynote speakers and give online lectures. Through this initiative, we will leverage the competitive advantages of the three distinct sinological communities and engage in a series of high-end, cutting-edge discussions in key academic issues in Sinology. Welcome to the first lecture series under the partnership agreement between JAS and IOS!

No registration is required for this lecture series. All are welcome to attend online:
