In summer 2025, UConn’s Experiential Global Learning program in partnership with the UConn History Department will be offering AAAS/HIST 2866, “China and the West”. This exciting 3-credit study abroad course travels to Beijing, Shanghai, and Xi’an, and will offer students the opportunity to visit world famous heritage sites such as The Great Wall of China, Terracotta warriors, Tiananmen Square, and the Forbidden City. This course will cultivate an increased understanding of Sino-Western shared history and perceptions about each other. In addition to field trips, students will strengthen their critical thinking and writing skills through reading, discussions, assignments, and research.
