Western Kentucky University has unveiled a Chinese language program that is being funded through a grant from The Language Flagship of the National Education Security Program at the United States Department of Defense. The WKU Chinese Flagship Pilot Program is an intensive undergraduate four-year course of study that leads to an honors degree in a home major and certified proficiency in Chinese. According to WKU, the program will be the only fully articulated four-year Chinese language program in the state and will not only help students become global professionals but have a positive impact on Kentucky’s trade relationship with China. All students participating in the program will complete a capstone year of study at Nanjing University and an internship experience in China.
