traces its origin to the Internaonal Studies Division created by Dean Wilfrido Villacorta under the College of Liberal Arts (CLA) in academic year 1983-1984. The Division originally comprised of the Japanese Studies program, the Chinese Studies program, and the American Studies program. Later, the supervision of the Japanese and Chinese Studies programs were consolidated under the Area Studies Division, together with the French Studies program (the precursor of the European Studies program). In 1992, upon the iniave of DLSU President Br. Andrew Gonzalez, ISD was established as a formal department under the CLA.
