Transitioning into an innovative and sophisticated city with a colorful night skyline, Shanghai is one of China’s modern aspects without losing its rich cultural and artistic heritage. This makes the city an ideal setting to study Chinese language and business development.

The Shanghai program offers you insight into the business and economic environment of China and East Asia. Study and live in the country’s biggest city, which used to be a quiet fishing town but is now at the center of a booming economy—in fact, one of the world’s largest. 

The official standard dialect is Mandarin, and Shanghai is the best place to practice it outside the classroom. After attending business logistics and language classes, head out and apply your learning everywhere you go – from movie theaters to art exhibits.

This program provides an intensive language approach, allowing you to complete up to one year of university foreign language coursework in one semester. Choose to combine courses for up to 18 credits. Add an internship and have an unparalleled opportunity to communicate in Mandarin while acquiring international business experience.
