China Medical University (CMU) is committed to cultivating internationally competitive biomedical talents, enhancing academic strength and global visibility, aligning with its "strengthening faculty and student capabilities" and "connecting with the international community" strategic goals. The Bilingual Education Program, coordinated by the university-level "Bilingual Education Center" with robust collaboration across colleges and the Office of International Affairs, focuses on integrating English into professional learning, ensuring high-quality EMI (English as a Medium of Instruction) courses and diverse bilingual activities.
- Phased Curriculum: CMU implements a systematic EMI curriculum, progressing from tiered English proficiency courses to academic English (EAP), English for Specific Purposes (ESP), and advanced professional EMI courses, with a future modular design.
- Significant EMI Growth: The three key cultivation colleges offered 191 physical EMI courses, with 126 faculty members having taught EMI courses.
- Comprehensive Student Support: The University offers diverse English learning platforms and non-credit language courses, incentivizing students to achieve CEFR B2 proficiency. It also organizes all-English competitions, immersive experience weeks, and creates specialized bilingual content like Chinese medicine podcasts and apps to enhance practical English application and communication skills.
- Rigorous Quality Assurance: EMI course designs undergo a three-tier review by departments, centers, and the university-level curriculum committee. Teaching evaluations and observation systems, including expert consultation and self-observation, are rigorously applied to ensure consistent quality.
- Deepened International Collaboration: CMU actively recruits international faculty, supports student overseas internships and exchanges, hosts international conferences, and signs dual-degree agreements with global partners to broaden international perspectives.
