Program Outline
Degree Overview:
Chinese language skills are a valuable asset in today’s global job market. Majoring or double-majoring in Chinese studies opens doors and makes graduates uniquely desirable to employers in a variety of fields; from business and the sciences to humanities and fine arts. Through its rigorous curriculum, Drew’s major in Chinese studies prepares students linguistically and intellectually for interaction with China and the Chinese-speaking world. Speaking, reading, and translating are stressed at all levels of language instruction. Plus, immersive activities—study groups, field trips, films, and more—help to integrate the study of the Chinese language and culture.
