Description
The Chinese minor focuses on two specific outcomes: developing students’ linguistic proficiency and broadening their insights into Chinese culture so that students may engage in meaningful interactions with Chinese speakers throughout the world. The communication skills and transcultural awareness that students develop throughout the course of the minor prepare them for a wide range of opportunities and experiences, both in and beyond the classroom.
