Program Description:
The Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Languages and Literatures offers an Advanced Language Study Abroad (LSA+) program in the People's Republic of China.
Classes are taught at a major university, Beijing Normal University, for ten weeks. In addition to its course offerings, Dartmouth-at-BNU gives students the experience of a culture and political climate radically different from their own. Throughout the term and in conjunction with course offerings, trips are taken to places of historical or cultural interest in Beijing and vicinity. There will be two weekend overnight field trips and an 11/12-day mid-term field trip.
