The primary language of instruction at TIT is Chinese. If you have no Chinese background and you are admitted as a degree-seeking student at our university, you will be considered as conditional admission. Based on your Chinese proficiency level, you will need to take an individually designed curriculum in the first academic year. In other words, you will take some Chinese language courses and other related courses in your degree-seeking program at the same time during your first semester. You will need to take the Chinese language courses in our Chinese Language Center until your Chinese reach certain proficiency. It is through the Chinese learning process that you can not only learn to appreciate and experience the Chinese tradition and culture, but also excel in coursework in the four academic years of the degree-seeking program.
