School Introduction:

In recent years, the study of Mandarin Chinese has gradually become a global phenomenon. Within the global diasporas of ethnic Chinese searching for their roots and identities, the majority hope that through Mandarin studies their children will be able to develop a profound understanding of Chinese culture and language, and empathy for their heritage. Moreover, international personages have come into contact with Chinese language and culture through participation in Chinese political, economic and cultural exchanges activities; this has created an increasingly positive international atmosphere for the study of Mandarin language. Finally, many international students, because of a particular academic interest, work requirement, life exigency, weigh up Taiwan’s lifestyle and its political and economic environment and choose to spend a period of time studying Mandarin in Taiwan.

In order to meet the demands of a rapidly globalizing Chinese Language market, Ming Chuan University established the Mandarin Studies & Culture Centre(MSCC) in 2002, with its prime responsibility to develop and promote Mandarin education, cultural exchange and social activities. Ming Chuan University has four educational and administrative Departments that accept international students and arrange study opportunities for students from all over the world since 2001. The first year saw ten students from Russia, Korea, Mongolia and Tibet attend classes. During the following years, the number of students increased. By 2008, MSCC was teaching approximately a hundred of international students, and this number is steadily increasing by ten to fifteen people per year.

  

 The Mandarin Studies & Culture Center (MSCC) is designed for international students who study Mandarin Chinese as a second language. Each term consists of twelve weeks (3 months). A new term begins each season and instruction is given all year round. Classes are arranged from beginning to advanced levels. Small-group classes (about 6-8 students) create an optimal learning situation for developing language skill. Classes are conducted in both Mandarin and English. Professional teachers who are native speakers of standard Mandarin guide every student's development and take an sincere interest in each person's individual learning. The program provides orientation, field trips and social activities to encourage communication with Taiwanese students and to develop a wider comprehension of Chinese culture & society.
