China
The Chinese program is located in Beibei, a city in southwest
China, Chongqing municipality. The focus of the program is upon Chinese language, history,
culture, literature, philosophy and art. All courses are taught in English at Southwest
China Teacher's University, a liberal arts university of 7,000 students. Students live on
the campus in the foreign student dormitory. The faculty consists of a professor who
accompanies the group and distinguished professors from the host university. In order to
expose students to China's diversity, the program provides approximately two weeks of
travel to major Chinese cities and sites usually including Chengdu, Beijing and Xian prior
to the beginning of classes in Beibei. From Beibei the program includes
numerous excursions in Sichuan province such as the Northern hot
springs, the Yangtze River and beyond.
