Within four weeks, the Summer University provides students with a comprehensive insight into the regional and cultural aspects of today's China. Lectures, seminars and workshops on China-specific conditions and developments in the fields of society, economics and law form the core of the Summer University. They are complemented by events in the fields of history, politics and geography. A language course and excursions to Chinese and international companies round off the programme. You can find more information here.
