Beijing International Studies University Seeks UK Partner for Undergraduate Articulation Programme

In order to expand its students’ international horizons Beijing International Studies University’s School of English Language, Literature and Culture (SELLC), intends to sponsor 5-6 English students each year to study in the UK.

It is looking for a partner to host these students in the UK for 2 years on a 1+2+1 articulation programme, on an annual basis. The preferred subjects include Media, International Relations, Business and Finance, subject areas that the School of English Language feel will be most accessible to their students.

The student’s costs will be fully covered by Beijing Municipal Government as an award to the selected students.
