Peking University–Yale University Joint Undergraduate Program
Established in 2006, the Peking University–Yale University Joint Undergraduate Program in Beijing provides Yale students the unique opportunity to study and live with Chinese students on the Peking University campus. The program is open to Yale College sophomores, juniors, and, in some cases, first-term seniors, and to Peking University Yuanpei Honors Program students. The program accepts students from all majors who are in good academic standing, for the fall or spring term or for the academic year. A term at Peking University carries full Yale course credit and counts as a term of enrollment. No prior Chinese language knowledge is necessary for Yale participants, although each student is required to take an appropriate level language course while in the program. All other courses, in a variety of disciplines, are taught in English by Yale and Peking University faculty members. Students from both universities live as roommates in a new residence hall centrally located on the Peking University campus. Further information about the program, the application process, and the courses offered is available on the program's Web site or from the Office of International Education and Fellowship Programs, 55 Whitney Avenue, third floor.
