Students who apply to study abroad in China are strongly advised to have a backup plan. Please feel free to discuss your plans with a study abroad advisor.
This study center program accommodates intermediate to advanced Chinese learners and takes your Chinese fluency to another level through intensive Chinese language coursework, local Chinese roommates, and a full-time Chinese language pledge. The Harbin dialect mirrors what is taught in textbooks, making it the ideal place to perfect your Chinese, and a one-on-one independent study Chinese language class about a topic of your choice pushes students to really invest in their studies and even pursue a research track abroad. Harbin Institute of Technology where CET Center is based, is the city's central hub, making it easy to fully immerse yourself in activities and excursions, whether it be singing karaoke or visiting Confucian and Buddhist temples.
