China: Shanghai University, Shanghai

Overview

In Shanghai, the largest city in and the financial and commercial capital of China, students can study at Shanghai University (SHU), a municipal university serving about forty thousand Chinese students, in the summer, fall, and/or spring. About three thousand international students study at SHU each year, exploring and learning Chinese language and culture in this dynamic city. Over the one-month summer session, students study economics, business and Mandarin Chinese. Semester students take a Mandarin language course at their level and elect from among courses taught in English, such as Culture in Contemporary China, Asian Economics, E-Commerce, Marketing Strategy, and Finance. No knowledge of Chinese language is required. Students enjoy a rich out-of-class field trip program with many excursions to places of cultural and historic importance in Shanghai, a city of twenty million, in addition to out-of-town field trips to scenic and historic locations such as Suzhou and Hangzhou.
