Study in China
Would you like to spend time in China to learn its language and develop an understanding of its culture, business and life in general?
Following the huge success of previous Study China Programmes since summer 2007, the Department for Business Innovation and Skills, the Scottish Government and the Department for Employment and Learning in Northern Ireland are continuing to fund over 400 places per year for students to go to China.
Successful candidates will be learning the Chinese language, attending lectures on Chinese culture, society, history and economy and visiting local businesses. We work with host universities in Beijing, Shanghai, Jinan, Hangzhou and Nanjing.
You can expect a once in a life experience through this programme. Previous students have written glowing reviews on their website – www.studychina.org.uk.
Programmes run every summer and Easter for 17 days with a choice of two locations each time.
This time they are offering a small number of internship-based places known as SCP-I. This will be very similar to the main programme but with a daily work placement tailored if possible to your degree subject area.
