The Department of Chinese Language and Literature offers rigorous training in Chinese language and literature. The curriculum affords a close examination of the characteristic features of the Chinese language, an in-depth introduction to theories of language and linguistics, and critical study of classical and modern Chinese literature.
Students are expected to acquire solid understanding of the field in general while specialising in their own areas of interest, such as Chinese phonology and grammar, Qin-Han textual studies, Tang-Song poetry, modern Chinese fiction or creative writing— all under the guidance of our erudite faculty members. The programme has the following features: (1) Core course requirements that lay a good foundation for further study in Chinese language and literature; (2) More than 50 specialty courses that students can select according to their academic interests; (3) Small-group teaching for creative writing courses, which forges close teacher-student bonds; (4) A core course of independent research for the final year major students in which they learn research methodologies and critical approaches by planning and conducting research on a topic in preparation for a thesis written under the close supervision of a faculty member; and (5) Writing courses that enhance students’ creative writing ability. Every year, our students win coveted prizes in major literary competitions.
Our graduates display an excellent command of both written and spoken Chinese, are well-versed in the great traditions of Chinese literature, and are thoroughly prepared to take on new challenges as they embark on their professional or academic careers
