BA Chinese

Currently, we provide two years of language instruction, but a third year may be added in the near future. Our language courses give top priority to developing oral and aural skills, although learners are taught to read and write Chinese as well. The textbook series used in this program is Integrated Chinese, published by Cheng & Tsui Company in Boston (www.cheng-tsui.com ). We employ the traditional character version of this series, but students are guided toward acquisition of the simplified characters, especially during their second year.
