Explore Beijing
This course abroad program is designed to benefit students two-fold.
Program participants will attend seven lectures and tour five of the
best libraries in Beijing over the span of two weeks. This hands-on
approach is meant to give students a Chinese perspective on
international digital librarianship. Not only will students be
surrounded and exposed to some of the world's leading technology in the
field, but they will also have the opportunity to visit some of the
world's most magnificent places. The class will be taking trips to Tian
An Men Square, the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, and the Temple of
Heaven just to name a few. Furthermore, the two-week program will be
held two months before the commencement of the Beijing Summer Olympics.
Tension and excitement have been building for the past few years, with
official Olympic countdowns strategically placed around the city to
remind everyone exactly how much time (to the second) remains until the
Opening Ceremony begins. Don't miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime trip
to see China and earn 3 graduate level credits from Southern
Connecticut State University.
