Chinese Studies at NC State
Preparing for the 21st century, courses in Chinese studies offer great opportunities
for students at NC State to learn the fundamental aspects of communication
in the official language used in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Marco
and various areas in the world.
The Chinese language was the first spoken language in the world, and
presently it is one of the official languages of the United Nations. One
out of five people in the world speaks Chinese. With its beautiful ideographic
writing and musical tones, Chinese language is attracting more and more
American students to enroll in Chinese courses at NC State.
How Chinese Can Meet Your Degree Requirements
The first and second semesters of Chinese (FLC101-102) may satisfy NC
State's foreign language requirement. The third semester of Chinese (FLC
