About this programme

The China Language and Economy Master of Arts programme accepts graduates in economics who are interested in China. It builds on their training in economics by offering courses on China's economy and Chinese business as well as seminars at the Master's level in economics (25%). In order to make students fit for living and working in China and to enable them to use Chinese language sources in their research, the programme also offers a sound training in Modern Chinese language and in Chinese studies (50% of the entire programme). Students who already have substantial Chinese language skills may alternatively choose the additional language track, "Japanese and Academic Discourse in China". Lectures and seminars in the field of Chinese economics cover a range of topics, such as "Finance and Banking", "China in the Global Economy", "Consumerism and Marketing", or "Challenges of Sustainable Development". Methodological questions of economic research on China are dealt with in special seminars and in case study seminars. In their Master's theses, students apply their knowledge of languages, research methods, and Chinese economics.
