4-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate for Business, Law and Social Sciences - Continue to Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Chinese Studies and Philosophy (Honours Select 50:50)

University of Liverpool's Chinese Studies programme provides students with the skills to engage fully with China from different dimensions and perspectives, thereby opening the door to truly international employment opportunities. Studying Chinese at 50% will enable students to become fully proficient in reading, writing, speaking, and listening to the language. Students will also deepen their knowledge and understanding of Chinese society and culture. Modules range from learning about ancient Chinese civilization to contemporary Chinese cinema, from Confucius and Laozi to Chairman Mao, from Peking opera to Chinese rock music. Philosophy goes well with every subject, for the simple reason that it touches on every subject, inquiring into its nature, methods, and boundaries. Also, some aspects of philosophy – e.g. the theory of knowledge – are relevant to every subject.
