Every year, this English-taught summer program gathers a hundred international students from over 30 countries and regions. AGSP is a great opportunity to explore more about business and culture in China in a globally engaging way. This year's edition is scheduled for 6 to 24 July.
Antai Global Summer Program(AGSP)was initiated by Antai College of Economics and Management, Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2013. Up till now, the program has welcomed more than 400 participants from over 30 countries and regions from top universities or business schools around the world, such as University of Cambridge, Harvard University, Northwestern University, University of British Columbia, University of Sydney, Technical University of Munich, University of Deusto and so on.
Participants will gain a deep understanding of the Chinese economy and culture throughout the three-week program which is carefully planned to include in-class coursework, company visits, social events and cultural tours.
AGSP not only invites leading full-time faculty from its own college, the Antai College of Economics and Management (ACEM), which is continuously listed in the Top 60 by Financial Times world business school rankings, to give themed lectures, but also features guest speakers from top-brand MNCs, phenomenal start-ups or chamber of commerce to share their business insights.
Cultural immersion activity is also a highlight of the program. During the program, we organize various social and cultural activities such as out-of-city excursions, acrobatic shows, river cruising, tea-making, Zen practice, pot modeling and etc. Plus, Chinese language courses are also included in the program and are offered at a differentiated level so as to cater to the majority’s learning needs.
AGSP offers a great opportunity to undergraduates, graduates and young professionals to explore more about business and culture in China in a globally engaging way and experience the vibes of Shanghai, an international business center, in the city center campus of SJTU.
