China Study Abroad Program

China is an ideal study abroad destination for students wishing for a true cultural learning experience. Students across all majors will find opportunities to fulfill degree requirements on the China Study Abroad Program.

Students of all majors are encouraged to study at Sichuan University in the city of Chengdu, located in the Sichuan Province in southwest China. Sichuan University is a key national research university with a history of more than 100 years. The university is a comprehensive institution with the widest selection of disciplines in west China. Sichuan University enjoys a deep cultural background and eminent scholarly research tradition. The university is dedicated to the internationalization of China's higher education and international students are valued and warmly welcomed to pursue academic studies there.

Business students will have the option to join SPU professors for a two-week seminar prior to the start of classes at Sichuan University. This program is designed to give students an opportunity to see how China's booming economy impacts businesses and nations around the world today.

To get a first-hand understanding of these global implications, students taking the pre-term session will depart in mid-August and visit the great cities of Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Beijing. The seminar launches students into an in-depth study of international business and exploration of the culture and life of the people of China.

All students will meet in Beijing to attend a 4-day orientation program to begin autumn quarter abroad. Before continuing on to the city of Chengdu, students will see major sights in Beijing while preparing for the cultural and academic differences they will encounter in China.
