The Routledge Course in Business Chinese

Designed to prepare students for the world of business, The Routledge Course in Business Chinese presents timeless business knowledge through topics ranging from frequently occurring business activities, economic systems and phenomena, to issues of common interest. Topics include: the stock market, international trade and economic recession and inflation. Business knowledge is presented as a means to facilitate language learning, while the content-based materials enhance cultural awareness. The course focuses primarily on developing advanced language skills with particular emphasis on formal styles and business terminology. Students are supported and guided through the course as they develop the skills they need to continue learning for themselves. Students are encouraged and inspired to explore and keep up-to-date with new developments in China’s economy through their own efforts, thus developing an independent learning style and connecting classroom learning to the real-world.
