Preparatory Program overview

This International Student Undergraduate Preparatory Program provides six-month to one-year training for graduated high school students who are interested in embarking on undergraduate studies at SDU. This preparatory program will help students improve their Chinese language abilities as well as their knowledge in fields such as mathematics, physics and chemistry. After the preparatory program international students who have received excellent scores can obtain priority admission to SDU undergraduate programs.

Aim of the program

This program will increase the student’s Chinese language skills so as to ensure that participants are able to pass the language requirements needed to enroll in a Chinese-taught undergraduate program. In addition to the language training students will gain a general knowledge on a variety of basic subjects. Students who have qualified for undergraduate studies will be able to choose from any undergraduate program taught in the Chinese language.

Learning outcomes

The learning outcome should be to pass an HSK 3 exam (270 points) after half a year or pass a HSK level 4 exam (210 points) after one year. If students pass an HSK level 4 exam they will fulfill the language requirements for enrollment in an undergraduate degree taught in Chinese. The basic subjects will teach general knowledge with the stated outcome of enabling students to have a good starting position when commencing their undergraduate studies. The basic subjects are listed below and all mandatory. These will be given in the second semester of the academic year.

If, after completing the preparatory courses, the student decides to discontinue his/her studies at SDU, he/she can be recommended by Shandong University to continue studying at other Chinese universities.
