Citation: The program of study in Chinese translation was established in 1980, the first of its kind in the Federal Republic of Germany. The lower division program of study concentrates on an intensive introduction to spoken and written Chinese with a special emphasis on spoken fluency in Modern Standard Chinese (Putonghua). [...] In addition to intensive general translation courses, the upper division program of study prepares the student's concentration on the specialized language of one or two fields (economics and business and/or science and technology). [...] To provide students with a stronger professional profile, the program also provides ongoing discussions of themes and problems in the areas of linguistics and translatology as well as intercultural studies. Throughout the entire program, students acquire insight into Chinese history, culture, politics, economics and society. Included among the requirements are optional modules that open up the possibility of acquiring additional qualifications, for example in Chinese word and data processing, an introduction to interpreting as well as internships in China.
