Witness first-hand how globalization affects the city and how China's increasing influence affects the world. In this economic and cultural hub of more than 18 million people, you will have the rare opportunity to learn and communicate in Mandarin, while being exposed to the local Shanghai dialect - a mark of the unique languages and cultures that exist in different regions throughout the country. As China's financial powerhouse, Shanghai provides an environment for learning not only about China, but also about Asia and the world at large!
The IES Abroad Shanghai Language Intensive Program is designed for students dedicated to learning Chinese. With zero language proficiency, you now have the opportunity to rapidly expand your knowledge of written and spoken Chinese. The program features a very strong language component, a for-credit internship option, and the opportunity to take liberal arts courses with our local partner university; Shanghai International Studies University (SISU).
