The Summer Program in Chinese Film History and Criticism will be hosted for the fifth time at the Beijing Film Academy on June 27 July 24, 2011. Students worldwide are welcome to the program, administered through the University of Washington. The program is especially well suited for upper-level undergraduates who intend to continue their studies in Chinese cinema, and for graduate students and professors who plan to teach courses involving films. 12 quarter credits are transferable to other institutions. No knowledge of Chinese is required.
The courses will be taught by professors from outside Asia (including Ackbar Abbas, Chris Berry, and Yomi Braester) and a variety of faculty from the Beijing Film Academy. The program also includes meetings with filmmakers. The program cost (including tuition and lodging, but not airfare) is $3,300 + registration fee. The application deadline is February 15.
