It was worthwhile. I just wished it was longer and when we arrived, it was not during the Shenzhen Univeristy's finals week. Joyce J - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
It was one of the best things I have every done. Getting to see so many amazing things and meet so many great people was just great. I loved it and hope that more students take advantage of this opportunity. Patrick S - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
Absolutely worthwhile. China is going to impact the world politically, socially, economically, and culturally. It was very important to travel there and gain a sense of what challenges they face, and what opportunities they have for their own people. Shannon D - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
Yes, this program is wonderful!!! Kit C - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
My experience in China was definitely worthwhile. I learned so much more about the culture than I ever could have from simply reading about it in a textbook. Katherine B - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
I learned that I can push myself and handle situations where I'm not in control at all (and that it's ok). I also learned that for as different as environments and cultures are people still essentially the same. Finally, I learned that preconceptions are often misconceptions and that people including myself need to be more open ... Daniel R - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
Absolutely worth while. Immersingmyself into another culture is the easiest and most exciting way to learn about it. Amy R - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
About
The College of Community and Public Affairs again offers a faculty-led tour to China. This tour is part of a 4-credit course which is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students with an interest in learning about the opportunities and challenges facing modern China. The program gives students the chance to learn about Chinese culture in both an academic setting and first-hand experiences, through seminars led by Shenzhen University faculty on topics ranging from China’s economy to Chinese foreign policy, field trips to places such as the Shenzhen Museum, hands on activities such as calligraphy, and Mandarin language lessons. Program participants will also gain a valuable international perspective through their interactions with Shenzhen University students and administrators. In addition, students will explore topics related to Chinese public administration and political economy during seminar sessions led by BU Professor Tom Sinclair.
