In 2014, the CLS Program for Chinese was offered in the above four institutes, which are located in three important Chinese cities. Each institute focuses on a specific proficiency range from intermediate-low to advanced. Assignments to the institutes will be based on demonstrated Chinese language proficiencies. These locations were chosen for both community livability and the academic reputations of our partner universities.
