CEA Shanghai, China - Accelerated Chinese Language & Cultural Studies
(Outgoing Program)
CEA Shanghai Center & East China Normal University
Designed for students who are serious about learning a language, this program allows students to advance through two levels of Chinese language in one semester. Language classes accommodate beginning levels and expose you to continuous contact with Chinese locals and their linguistic and cultural idiosyncrasies. You'll explore Chinese culture and identity through elective courses in history, philosophy, communication, business, and international relations.
Shanghai's ancient past is tucked just under the surface of its iconic, modern skyline. As a leading port town and China's "Gateway to the West," Shanghai is considered a golden land of opportunity by many 21st Century Chinese. Its young, trendsetting population is known for a fascination with everything hip and ultra-modern, but the city's colonial influences aren't hard to find; just explore its many green spaces, park bridges, and interlocking canals to catch a glimpse into Shanghai's rich history.
Shanghai provides a front-row seat from which to observe – and participate in – the shaping of China's dynamic future. Once based primarily on fishing and textiles, today the city's booming economy flourishes as gateway of commerce between East and West, as well as an international finance industry hub. Get to know China's culture and heritage through hands-on CEA activities like practicing early morning t'ai chi alongside locals, participating in a tea ceremony, sampling Hu Cai cuisine, or trying your hand at calligraphy.
