How long does it take to complete the BYU Chinese Flagship program?
The time in the program depends on individual backgrounds and where a student enters the program. The full program is meant to be completed as an integral part of an undergraduate education, students must complete a minimum of four dedicated Chinese Flagship courses (12 hours) and at least four advanced Chinese electives (12 hours). After a student completes the BYU campus coursework, they participate in the overseas capstone program in China, beginning with direct enrollment at Nanjing University in Nanjing, China for one semester (~5 months) and culminating in an internship in China, which focuses on your specific career goals (~ 4 months).
