A Guide to Study Abroad in Guangzhou

Popular Ways to Study Abroad in Guangzhou

What better location for students studying abroad than in China’s hottest spot for international education! As the biggest trading port in China, Guangzhou attracts people from all over the world. Whether you’re a university student, language learner, or simply looking to devour hundreds of dim sums, there is no better place to visit in the Eastern World.

Popular subjects to study. The city is beaming with international companies, making international relations and business two of the most popular subjects of study in Guangzhou. From finance and accounting to sales and marketing, business students will find the best classes to prepare them for the business world. Business not your field? Other popular courses include language and Chinese culture. Popular subjects to “study” (during your spare time) also include shopping and searching for the best Kao Ru Zhu (roast suckling pig) in Shangxia Jiu Lu!

Short-term and summer programs vs. long-term programs. With many top notch universities in Guangzhou and the Guangdong Province, the most common type of study abroad happens at a university level. Most students will choose to do a semester abroad; however, other programs allow students to study short-term for a summer, or an entire gap year in school. Short-term programs will be easier to arrange as a student if you’re short on time. However, long-term programs will allow you to dive into everyday life until you’re a Guangzhouer yourself!

Attending universities vs. other program types. Most students in Guangzhou will study at the local universities for a semester or year abroad, especially if they decide to study business. The cream of the crop are here so embrace that #Fighting attitude since competition is always intense! Other who decide to do a language and culture immersion will have more flexibility in the time commitment. Spend a month or a year in a host family, learn Cantonese and immerse yourself into proud Guangzhou culture!
