The Graduate Certificate in Arts (Chinese) is designed for individuals who hold a bachelor's degree and wish to gain knowledge and skills in the Chinese language and culture. This qualification serves as a bridge, allowing you to explore a new subject area without undertaking a second full bachelor's degree. It focuses on developing both oral and written Chinese, with courses ranging from beginner to advanced levels. Additionally, you can enroll in cultural courses that delve into Chinese history, society, economic changes, literature, and film, even if you don't know the Chinese language.
The program can be completed in one semester of full-time study. Note that no 100-level credits are included in this certificate. If prerequisite 100-level courses are needed, they must be taken separately. Students who are native speakers of Chinese should consult the Programme Coordinator before enrolling in courses below the 300-level.
This qualification is not open to international students.
