The Johns Hopkins University-Nanjing University Center for Chinese and American Studies is jointly administered by Nanjing University and The Johns Hopkins University Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS). The Center offers two residential programs: a two-year M.A. degree in International Studies, and a one-year, graduate-level program in Chinese and American studies.
Our Students Learn About China From First-Hand Experience
Nanjing is the capital of China's Jiangsu Province, and a city with a prominent place in Chinese history and culture. Nanjing served as the capital of China during several historical periods, including the Republican Era of the 20th century, and is listed as one of the Four Great Ancient Capitals of China.
"I wanted to benefit from a high-quality education while having the possibility to discover and develop further my knowledge of the Chinese language and culture. Spending a year in China [at the Center]; living alongside Chinese and International students with common passions and interests; attending classes covering economic, political and social topics in Chinese; and having access to a unique combination of a vast array of resources and very accessible staff members, professionals and alumni -- it all proved to be the great experience and the invaluable opportunity I was looking for."
