Make Your Next Step China — PKU Shenzhen

Date:

China is set to soon be the world’s number two destination for international students worldwide. But there is a number two spot China already occupies: its globalized economy has swiftly risen to become the second largest in the world.


The growth of the economy cannot be separated from the growth of talent. China’s universities have steadily climbed international rankings and now occupy top spots. These days, there are innovative and affordable fully-English language Masters programs offered in China which can transform you into an informed, connected and global future leader.


Shenzhen is at the center of this progress. It’s where youth, global connections, education, business and technology come together. The Greater Bay Area is becoming an international economic hub unrivaled by any other in the world. Shenzhen, at only 40 years old, attracts the top tech companies of China as well as the talent to utilize new technology for global change.


You are not alone in thinking China could be your next step. Having thoughts about the application to PKU Shenzhen? We are always here to help.
