Study Abroad

Study Abroad

Students wanting to minor in Chinese are encouraged and expected to spend one semester or one full year abroad to study the language in mainland China, Taiwan or Hong Kong. Other programs that the college endorses include: (1) CET, (2) the Council on International Education Exchange (CIEE) program in Beijing and China Studies Program (at Peking University) and Shanghai (at East China Normal University). Students interested in these or other off-campus opportunities to study Chinese should check with the program director or with Jessica DuPlaga, coordinator of Off-Campus International Programs Office.

Moreover, if you are interested in opportunities of teaching English in China through such organizations as PGA, you should contact the chair of the Chinese Program and make your intention known.
