Have you ever thought about to climb Great Wall, to be part of the over 5000 years of history, to explore opportunities in China and many more? Would you like to have a Chinese Business Studies Minor? JMU Study in China Program might be just for you.
Since the pioneer program in the summer of 2004, JMU Study in China Programs have taken over 170 students and faculty members from JMU, VCU, GMU, Princeton universities to China. The duration of the programs since 2010 is eleven weeks. Among the activities are meeting business leaders and government officials, touring major historical and cultural sites and interacting with Chinese students on their campus. In the last few years, we visited almost all of the major historic and cultural sites in China, travelled as far as to Urumqi, Hohhot, Shanya, Hong Kong, Macau and visited South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Japan.
Participating students could obtain JMU Chinese Business Studies Minor and/or Asian Studies Minor upon their completion of the programs in China. We will continue our effort to bring the best experience for participating students in our programs in the coming years.
The eleven weeks programs from the later May to early August each year feature a Chinese Business Studies Minor Program and a flexible program to fit the needs of participating students. Students will take five JMU courses during the program.
