The University has recruited a large number of\ntop-notch professors, many of whom are prominent scientists and leading\nscholars. XMU currently has a faculty of 2,657, of whom 81.1% hold doctoral\ndegrees. XMU affords high priority to the diversification and internationalization\nof the mix of its faculty. Over the years, XMU has forged partnerships with\nnearly 300 higher-learning institutions around the world and engaged in\nsubstantive cooperation with more than 50 of the world\u2019s top 200 universities. XMU\nstudents have opportunities during their studies at the University to\nparticipate in various academic exchange programs or pursue further studies at\nworld-renowned universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nestled snugly between green hills and the\nblue sea, XMU is renowned as China\u2019s “most beautiful university” for\nits excellent education facilities and beautiful environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The tuition fee and cost of living at XMU\nare relatively low compared with most of the other major universities in China\nand beyond. A good variety of scholarships are available to international\nstudents. International students can truly feel the care of the university as\nif they were in their home countries. There is a fortnightly breakfast with the\nuniversity president, during which the president will seek students\u2019 feedback.\nRegularly held language saloons include the Chinese corner, the English corner,\nand the French corner. The Chinese Bridge Contest, the Xiamen International\nMarathon Race and the XMU Foreign Karaoke Contest are among the most popular\ncompetitions on campus for international students. The University hosts\ncelebrations for major holidays observed by international students, such as the\nSpring Festival and the Water-splashing Festival. It is one of the unique\nsights on campus that a great many international students practice Tai Chi\nboxing and swords by the Furong Lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The programs are open to applicants with\ndifferent levels of Chinese proficiency. Students will be placed into three\nlevels (i.e. beginning, intermediate and advanced) and be grouped into\ndifferent classes with small size. The program will focus on the training of\nlistening, speaking, reading, and writing, with optional courses such as HSK\ntutorial, Chinese Idioms and Their Stories, Learning Chinese by Watching Chinese\nMovies, Chinese Kung Fu and Chinese Painting to act as a supplement to core\ncourses. The objective is to help learners improve their abilities of Chinese\nlanguage and communication, so as to enable them to apply Chinese in theirs\nstudies, life and future careers. Certificate of Completion and transcripts\nwill be issued to students upon completion of the study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
XMU GET International Summer School is\njointly organized by the Overseas Education College of Xiamen University and\nthe Canadian education institution \u2014 Global Education & Technology Ltd. In\nrecent years, with the rapid growth of the number of Chinese students studying\nin North America and the increasing cost of studying abroad, more and more\nstudents choose to spend their summer vacation on international summer school\nprograms in order to obtain credits for North American universities. At the end\nof the course, if the student\u2019s overall assessment qualifies, official\ntranscripts will be provided by the Overseas Education College of Xiamen\nUniversity and certified by the relevant credit accreditation agency in North\nAmerican. Through this process, credits obtained in China can be transferred to\nNorth American universities and can be considered towards the equivalent course\ncredit at the student\u2019s home school. For international students, attending a\nsummer school offers both time-saving benefits as well as cost-coefficients.\nThe tuition fees of summer programs in China can often be comparatively lower\nthan their North American counterparts, thus cutting back on the already\nextremely high costs of studying abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
