Overview - Columbia in Beijing at Tsinghua University
Columbia
University in Beijing provides a rare opportunity for advanced students
to directly enroll in a broad range of courses at Tsinghua University,
one of China's top institutions. The supported immersion program is
designed for independent students who already demonstrate a high level
of both written and spoken Mandarin Chinese and who wish to challenge
themselves by using Chinese to further understand their own areas of
study in the humanities, social sciences, economics, sciences, environmental sciences, information sciences, engineering, and architecture.
The fall semester of the program runs from September to January, spring from February to June and the full year program from September to June.
