III. Details about the Course Works

We may have 1~2 courses instructed in English in each semester, but most of our courses are instructed in Chinese. Therefore in order to meet the requirements of listening comprehension in class, we highly recommend students to have Chinese language proficiency higher than designated level (TOCFL Level 4 or New HSK Level 6).
