Have you considered pursuing a major in Chinese?
The major in Chinese develops students’ language competence and provides training in Chinese culture and society through a combined approach of proficiency-oriented, communicative, situational and education abroad activities. The diversity of courses offered prepares students - both majors and nonmajors - for future career advancement.
