It is intended to enable students who are serious about studying Chinese language in a total immersion environment to cover an academic year worth of material and to earn eight UVa credits.

UVa Studio Art Student Exchange Program with the Department of Fine Arts, The Chinese University of Hong Kong
The University of Virginia’s Studio Art Program has initiated a Student Exchange Program with the Fine Arts Department at the Chinese University of Hong Kong this year. It first began as an exhibition exchange between the two schools, when in February 2008 the Studio faculty of C.U.H.K. showed their artworks at our “Off Grounds Gallery” and then in May 2008, UVa sent their work to Hong Kong.
The Chinese University of Hong Kong will begin sending us their art students next Fall 2009. The agreement between the two institutions allows us to exchange as many as two art students per semester. Any student majoring in Studio Art and in their second or third year is eligible.

Darden School of Business Global Business Experience in China (spring)
Based on a unifying theme and a specific geographic location, each course includes structured classes and practitioner presentations as well as visits to companies, governmental agencies, and important cultural sites. Each Global Business Experience course is intended to give students a better perspective on the countries visited and, through comparison, on their country of origin. All GBEs share a common set of academic objectives, to increase students' awareness and understanding of the differences in cultures and business practices, and to increase students' familiarity with current economic, political, and cultural issues in countries and regions outside of the United States.

Chinese Summer Language Institute
The SLI program is an intensive 8-credit beginning level program in Modern Standard Mandarin Chinese for students with no or little prior experience in the language. The program is not intended for students who speak Mandarin Chinese or who have previously studied the language. The program will cover material for Chinese 101 and 102 offered during the fall and spring semesters at the University of Virginia. Students may proceed to CHIN201 upon successful completion of the program.
The Summer Language Institute Chinese program helps students acquire a solid foundation in listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in a near immersion setting. Students learn all the sounds and tones in Mandarin Chinese, basic vocabulary, frequently used characters, pinyin (the standard Mandarin Chinese transcription system), and information about Chinese language, culture, and society. The intimate class format maximizes interaction between teachers and students, creating a learning environment that facilitates both individual and collective learning processes.
