Following the success of our inaugural trip in April (view the highlights), Nottingham Confucius Institute is offering up to 15 scholarships for UoN/NCI students on the 2025 Spring camp to China.

The Spring Camp to China programme is an opportunity to visit China and explore Chinese culture, history and landscapes while learning and practicing Mandarin in a real-life setting. It will take place from Saturday 5 April to Thursday 17 April 2025.

Organised by the NCI, the programme is delivered by Fudan University in Shanghai. Successful candidates will attend Mandarin lessons and cultural experience activities at Fudan University and also visit sites of historical and cultural interest in Shanghai and Xi’an.

The scholarships will cover all relevant expenses within China, such as accommodation, meals, transport within China, Mandarin language lessons, cultural workshops, excursions and city tours. Flights to China, insurance and visa costs, etc. will need to be covered by participants. Terms and conditions apply.

Please note that participants must have sat for an HSK Test and obtained their HSK Level 1 or higher certificate by December 2024 (you can register and take your HSK test at the NCI testing centre if needed).

Find out more and express your interest by Friday 26 July.
