Program Description:

CET Harbin

Harbin students
At CET Harbin, you'll take a step towards near-native fluency. You'll specialize in improving your language skills through a one-on-one language course about a topic of your choice. You'll target diction and error correction in a one-on-two drill course. You'll add breadth to your vocabulary through electives like business Chinese, Chinese newspaper and Chinese literature. A full-time language pledge ensures that Chinese is the sole means of communication for the entire term. This program is perfect for intermediate and advanced language learners who are ready for full immersion. Spring semester students can up the ante by tacking January Term in Beijing onto their study abroad plans.

Experience Full Immersion. Transform Your Chinese.

  • Intensive academics, with 20 hours/week of Chinese language classes
  • One-on-one tutorial, designed by the student
  • One-on-two course that focus on error correction

After you attend the Global Cougs 101, spend some time exploring different program options.

WSU places a high importance on serving every student and their specific needs.

Please visit the Diversity Issues section of the Education Abroad website for more information and resources.
