¡°People are finally beginning to pay attention to Mandarin Chinese as
a major cultural and economic prospect for students. Parents want their
children to have an edge, and they see Chinese as helping them get that.
I¡¯ve heard from people who say: ¡°Forget the engineering. Learn the foreign
language. If you want a job, the foreign language is going to sell your
engineering¡±.
Washington Post, August 2006
Why Study Chinese?
1.3 billion Chinese can¡¯t be wrong. The Chinese population of 1.3 billion makes up one third of the world¡¯s population. This fact alone makes you understand the need to be able to speak to such a large portion of the world!
China has taken important steps to open its doors to foreign trade and integrate itself into the world trade system. The Chinese World Trade Organization commitments should further open China¡¯s markets to help level the playing field for U.S. exports. China is now one of the most important markets for U.S. exports. China¡¯s rising economic and political future make it essential to learn about this giant country, its rich history, language and culture.
