Brief Introduction

This program was composed in cooperation with German Universities, especially University of Applied Sciences Rosenheim. It has been running very successfully since September 1997.Since 2006 our overseas partner is the University of Applied Sciences Dortmund/Germany. We have enrolled and trained more than 500 international students since then.

In each term we offer 7 courses for international students who are interested in Chinese Business. (Course description is attached herewith). Each program starts with the opening of our academic term at Ocean University of China. In either spring term (starting in March) or autumn term (starting in September), the students will study fifteen weeks with us. Among the fifteen weeks, there is a two-week break during International Labor Day or National Day (around Oct. 1st) to allow students to tour around in China.

Main Course

The courses offered are as follows:

China and World Economy
Business Management in China
Investment in China
Marketing Management in China
Chinese Culture
Basic Chinese
Taiji
Case studies

Guest Lecturers

We also arrange guest lecturers from famous companies, banks and other institutes to enlarge our students' view on the situation in the fields of Chinese economy and culture. Every week, there will be an excursion to local companies such as Haier, Hisense, Attorney's Office and other relevant places to show the students how the real business is done here in China.

Many foreign companies, such as Qingdao Degussa Chemical Co. Ltd., Lucent Technologies Qingdao, and Maersk Container Industrial Qingdao Ltd. are also on our list of excursions. Students trained in our program will get a certificate after completing the courses. Now many of our students graduated are working in the multi-national companies such as Siemens and Lucent. The reason why our students are highly demanded is that they are trained by experienced experts or professors in the field of business.

• Question: How to deal with a pending application?

Answer: When an application is pending a decision it means that your school has received it and no admissions decision has been made yet. The admissions office may have reviewed your application package or may not have.

The main cause of a pending application is usually incomplete application documents. As a result you will be requested by the school’s admission office to re-check and modify all submitted application documents or perhaps even add extra documents and then re-submit them.

To avoid further delays, carefully read the university’s comments, modify your application form on ACASC, and re-upload the required application documents. You can contact ACASC on admission@acasc.cn for any help with regards to your pending application

• How long does it take to process my application?

Processing time varies for different applications. For example to process a degree program application requires more time than a Chinese language application. Confirmation for Chinese language application by the admission office usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. However, time for degree programs application differs. For example fall semester application processing is after March, and it takes a period of 1 to 2 months. This also depends on your qualification and the number of applicants.
