The Shanghai, China program will not run in 2027.
From treaty port to revolutionary hotbed to global metropolis, the city of Shanghai has connected diverse peoples, cultures, cuisines, and economies from various parts of China and around the world. Interweaving cultural studies with history and education, this program will help you understand China, in regional and international contexts through engagement with a variety of historical, literary, and cinematic texts. In addition to classes, you will take field trips to historical landmarks, neighborhoods, museums, and factories, occasionally venturing beyond the city to neighboring provinces. You will also learn to make your own, new discoveries using original research, so that you can use your experiences in Shanghai to produce your own creative project or academic paper.
