Coursework in Chinese emphasizes language study as a gateway to understanding another culture, the world, and our place in it. The Asian Studies Program offers elementary language instruction in Chinese. For more intensive experience, the College also cooperates with the CIEE Chinese Language Program at Beijing University. See the Special Programs and Opportunities section of this catalog for details.

For a full description of the programs in Asian Studies, see the listings for Asian Studies and Japanese.
