The trip will also provide students with the opportunity to study the social, political and economic factors and experience other countries. Students will stay in residence halls. Every morning students will attend a variety of classes at the University. Currently Greenwood is working with HTU on what classes will be offered. At the beginning of the trip students will choose the classes they would like to take.
Classes range from an hour to an hour and a half and are led by Chinese professors.
Students will study topics such as Chinese culture, law, business and government. The students will spend the afternoons sight-seeing and visiting historical and contemporary sights. Greenwood is also working on the possibility of students having dinner with a Chinese family. The cost of the trip is relatively inexpensive, Greenwood said. Drake students are receiving a rate that is equivalent to the cost of a Chinese student attending the University.
