undertake subject-specific study and research training in the context of
contemporary China. Opportunities for further doctoral research are available
in a variety of subject areas.

Flexible Design
You can tailor your Master's programme according to your language ability and
interests. Students choose between two key strands in this taught Master's
degree. Each strand offers a range of core and elective modules which provide
different disciplinary perspectives on contemporary China. Strand 1 offers you
intensive Mandarin tuition in addition to the core modules on contemporary
China, and aims to you to an intermediate proficiency level in spoken and
written Mandarin. Strand 2 provides for students who have prior Chinese
language learning experience, through their undergraduate programme, other
study or work experience, and is also suitable if you are a native speaker of
Mandarin. If you enrol in Strand 2, you may choose to polish your Chinese
language proficiency through intermediate to advanced Mandarin modules.

Study in China
The first two semesters of the degree are delivered in Dublin. In the third
semester of the degree, you will gain first-hand experience and understanding
of Chinese life and society through our Study Abroad programme in one of
Trinity's partner universities (including for instance Peking University,
Tsinghua University, Fudan University, Beihang University, the University of
Nottingham-Ningbo, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, the Chinese University
of Hong Kong, the University of Hong Kong and the National University of
Singapore).You then return to Trinity College to complete the fourth and final
semester, and submit a Master's dissertation.
