As China assumes ever more global significance, knowledge of this huge country and its language will become increasingly valued and provide clear opportunities in a wide range of careers. Choosing a Chinese Pathway on one of the above courses will allow you to develop the cultural awareness and language skills essential to communicating effectively in Mandarin Chinese. The Pathway has two components: language study (ab initio or with prior knowledge), and area studies, focussing on history, politics, economics and contemporary society. For students choosing Chinese, you will be required to spend one year at a university in China. The Chinese Pathway will combine with other parts of your degree course (another language, International Trade, or International Relations) to complete a BA (Hons) degree that will stand out from the crowd and give you a distinct competitive edge. +44 (0)23 9284 6080 Park Building King Henry 1st Street Portsmouth, Hampshire PO1 2DZ United Kingdom Fax Fax: +44 (0)23 9284 6040 Phone Phone: +44 (0)23 9284 6080 Tuition charges Tuition fees: Please check website for details.
