Who these programs suit and what to confirm with each university
The 33 institutions suit different goals. Many offer non-degree Chinese language study for short stays or preparation. Vocational and diploma colleges focus on engineering, nursing, business, agriculture, and transport. Comprehensive and specialized universities provide full academic pathways from bachelor's to PhD in fields such as medicine, education, economics, ethnic studies, and engineering.
Most programs are taught in Chinese. A smaller set is taught in English or a mix: Guizhou University lists several English-taught or Chinese/English programs at every degree level; Guizhou University of Finance and Economics offers Chinese/English doctoral programs; Kaili University's English major is taught in Chinese and English. Where the manual shows an HSK level, age range, or prior-education condition, treat it as the printed entry requirement and confirm the current version with the university.
The manual does not include tuition, scholarship amounts, or application deadlines. Check each university's international education college or international exchange office official website for the latest notice. Use the official websites below rather than any contact details printed in the manual.
