The Chinese Flagship is an innovative program that enables any IU undergraduate student to cultivate professional-level proficiency in Chinese while simultaneously completing one or more majors. The program culminates in a year-long Capstone experience in Taiwan, including study at a university and internships in fields relevant to students’ majors. Students complete the program with extensive knowledge of Chinese culture and the language proficiency needed to launch their careers and help shape a world based on a deep understanding of and respect for the global community.

"The Chinese Flagship Program at Indiana University fundamentally shaped both my professional trajectory and personal growth by giving me immersive, real-world experience using Chinese in academic and professional settings. Flagship funding, along with additional scholarships and fellowships, allowed me to attend the International Chinese Language Program and spend a year studying abroad in Taiwan. These experiences strengthened my analytical skills, taught me to navigate uncertainty with confidence, and reinforced my commitment to impactful international work.”
