In 2009, there were approximately 200,000
oversea students in mainland China with Asian being the majority
group (72%). In Hong
Kong, a Special Administrative Region of China,
there are around 1600 oversea students studying a degree programme,
with a relatively balanced population between the non-Asian and
Asian group (4:6). This phenomenon is probably a benefit from
the bilingual and international environment of Hong
Kong.
Chinese University of Hong Kong prides herself on being a world top-ranking university
with a mission to bring together China and the West and to combine tradition with
modernity. Every year, Chinese Language Centre (CLC) teaches Chinese
language to more than 4000 students (3000 local students and 1000
overseas students from more than 70 countries). Student type includes
undergraduates, postgraduates, exchange students, full-time Chinese
language students, summer school students and part-time students
coming from the local and expat workforce.
You will appreciate the unique study here with our competent
and friendly staff in a conveniently located campus with stunning
views in a vibrant Chinese city.
If you want to learn more about the study opportunity
with the Centre, or having any questions related to Chinese as
a foreign/ second language, please feel free to contact CLC staff
