Beijing Language and Culture University

The Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU) is unique; it is the only International institution in China to have its focus on teaching Mandarin Chinese and culture to students who come from a non-Chinese ethnic background as well as teaching non-Chinese languages. It also offers courses in computer science and technology, finance and accounting to Chinese students.

The campus location is in Wudaokou, a melting pot for incoming overseas students, all with the same purpose; to learn Chinese! BLCU prides itself on its standard of teaching which is more than comparable to Peking or Tsinghua University. At BLCU the workload is balanced, allowing students to undertake classroom learning yet afford them the opportunity to explore and see the cultural elements of the City of Beijing
