Overview
It is often said that China is the future. Yet, today China is already globally important in any imaginable way – be it business and economy, politics, culture, or science and technology, to name just a few key areas. Understanding China is therefore not only about understanding opportunities brought about by the stellar growth, development and internationalisation of China but is also a prerequisite for understanding the world we live in. What makes China tick? What are the social, historical and political traditions and practices that shape China’s past and present, and increasingly so, world’s future?
Chinese language modules are optional to all students as part of Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University's Diploma in China Studies at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University.
