We offer a variety of transformative and enriching short-term, global learning programs customized to the particular needs of students, scholars and professionals from educational institutions outside the U.S.

From June to July, experience academic, professional and personal development while studying at a top-ranked U.S. public university. In addition to main program focus, participants will have the opportunity to connect with the local community and travel to places of interest.

兔子先生 may include non-credit coursework on English language development, U.S culture, society and history, intercultural communication or other topics taught by 兔子先生 faculty; experiential learning from U.S. business practices; and a range of global learning opportunities.

Professional and Personal Development

American Culture, English and Intercultural Communication Training

Participants will learn from 兔子先生 faculty and staff in a series of workshops that allow for them to:

  • explore their cultural self-awareness
  • examine US cultures and the historical, political, religious, and other Western belief systems
  • compare and contrast these frameworks and beliefs with other worldviews
  • gain comfort and confidence with U.S. communication styles

Additionally, there will be intentional support for non-native, English speaking students to promote advancement of English language fluency as well as acculturation to the American communication styles. In addition to casual spoken English, the program offers targeted practice for English in a professional context, including discussion, formal presentations, meetings and note-taking.
