Destination China programme
The programme offers an exciting mix of visits and lectures giving important insights into contemporary Chinese society, economy, politics, and culture, and the rapid transformation China has experienced over recent decades. You’ll also learn about life on a Chinese university campus and the experiences of Chinese students as innovators and entrepreneurs. They will meet high-profile businesses leading the way in China’s economic boom and visit major sites in Beijing and Shanghai. Finally you’ll learn some basic Mandarin Chinese and will get a chance to practice their new language skills while out and about.
This is a wonderful opportunity to gain a well-rounded impression of contemporary China, its culture and business environment. Interactive group learning and practical activities will develop their team working, communication and problem solving skills. They will also develop your cross cultural skills through interactions with SIAS staff and students. The skills developed through this immersion and learning experience in another culture will make them stand out as Global Talent in today’s competitive workforce.
