Affiliation: School of Arts & Letters
Chinese is one of the most useful languages for business, and foreign language skills are in high demand worldwide. Adding a Chinese minor to a college experience provides students with valuable cross-cultural skills and insights they can apply to nearly any career. Students develop traditional skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing while they explore Chinese history and traditions.
Studying abroad exposes students to new ways of learning, and Truman offers several study-abroad programs where they can immerse themselves in Chinese culture.
Adding a Chinese component to their studies prepares them for postgraduate work and careers in Chinese studies, Asian studies, education, foreign policy, communications, law, and international business in the United States and abroad.
