MATRIX ED-SERVICES GROUP
Hosting Institute – The Beijing Language and Culture University
Introduction:

MEG partners with the Beijing Language and
Culture University, also known as BLCU, in
organizing CSL’s 2008 Summer Study-Abroad
Program. Our objective is to provide the best
studying and learning environment for our
students with the most qualified teaching staff.
Current BLCU students can share their CSL
learning experiences and provide guidance for
MEG students. Because more than half of the
students attending BLCU are foreigners, MEG
students will not experience unease.
History of BLCU:

BLCU was founded in 1962 and is the only international university in China with
its main focus set towards teaching the Chinese language and culture to foreign
students. Today, there are over 13,000 students in which 9,000 are foreigners and
4,000 are Chinese. BLCU published over 1,500 text books in diverse fields.
Various educational institutes and training organizations in approximately one
hundred countries have adopted textbooks published by BLCU geared towards
the teaching of Chinese.
Location:  

BLCU is located at the famous university district, Haidian District, where all top
ranked universities in Beijing are. BLCU provides various indoor and outdoor
sports facilities, as well as a performance center, library, and information
technology center for its 13,000 full-time and part-time students. BLCU’s newly
constructed foreign student dormitory buildings provide central air-conditioned
rooms with television units, a bathroom and various amenities.

preferences indicated in the questionnaire found in the application package. Students
will be accommodated in double-occupancy rooms which strictly enforces the policy of
sharing a room with someone of the same gender. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner will be
offered daily where most of the meals take place at the cafeteria of the university, except
during excursions.
