The following are two subsidized study-abroad summer programs offered by Peking University for summer 2024. If you are interested in applying for them, please follow the instructions at the end and also email Diana Chen Lin (dchenlin@iu.edu) for a recommendation for the trip you want to undertake.

Youth worldwide is facing many complex global challenges; hence future leaders must take on a global perspective in order to adequately understand local, global, and cross-cultural issues. As the world’s two most important nations, the United States and China have the responsibility to promote world peace and shared prosperity. It is crucial for future American leaders to gain a better understanding of China.

In summer 2024, in collaboration with partner universities in the U.S., Peking University will launch the “Academic Explorers in China” program as a part of the “China Deep Dive: Global Young Leaders Program.” Selected students will attend lectures on the Peking University campus and go on guided trips in and outside Beijing.

IU Northwest and IU South Bend are organizing a joint Study Abroad in China Program, May 20-31, 2024. It provides an immersive experience of learning the history and culture of four Chinese cities, Beijing, Luoyang, Suzhou and Shanghai, through combining academic work with touring the imperial, Buddhist and modern architecture in those cities. We will also tour the famous Shaolin Monastery in Luoyang. China is the second-largest economy in the world and has undergone tremendous changes in the past 45 years. Seeing China firsthand, interacting with ordinary Chinese people, and visiting places of both historical and contemporary significance enable students to build a tangible framework of China, its people, history, and the present.

Step-by-step introduction of the application process and the China trip

1. Complete the online application form: The program application is administered by the IUSB Academic Affairs Office of International Programs. Please fill out an online application, submit an application essay, and complete the agreement and release form at: https://academics.iusb.edu/international-programs/study-abroad-application.html. The deadline for application is Nov. 29, 2023. Applications filed after the deadline are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
2. For IUN students, after you complete 1, please go to https://one.iu.edu/task/iu/scholarships. There you can submit a general scholarship application. In the application, you will be asked if you are interested in studying abroad. Answer affirmatively. Completing the general scholarship application will allow you to apply for all scholarships you may qualify for -not just the study abroad ones. All will receive scholarships to partially offset the trip cost, although the amount may vary. For IUSB students, please apply for scholarships through https://students.iusb.edu/scholarships/iu-south-bend-scholarships/study-abroad.html.
3. The trip fee will be included in the tuition as “lab fee” and eligible for financial aid for financial aid recipients. Even if you are on financial aid, please still apply for scholarships as discussed in 2 above.
4. The total cost of the trip is $3,500. About half of that amount is toward the roundtrip airfare. The fee includes all expenses in the trip (round trip airfare from the US to Beijing and return from Shanghai to the US, accommodations (two people per hotel room), transportation in China, meals, museum and park tickets, and trip insurance). The fee does not include the cost of passport application, application for a visa for China, and transportation to and from the airport within the US. We are still determining the final cost of the trip. The fee prices will vary depending on which airports in the US you depart from since the airfare will differ for different routes.
5. The study abroad in China trip is part of a 3-credit course HIST T190, which will be posted on the IUN class schedule for summer 24 in the next week or two. Once you have applied for the trip and submitted your scholarship application, you can sign up for the course.
6. After the Dec. 1 deadline, we will have a Zoom trip orientation meeting about passports and visas. Meanwhile, you will get emails from the IUSB office of international programs to follow up with your trip application, informing you what documents are still needed to process your application.
7. We will have several online orientation sessions from Jan. 2024 on, and, if you do not have a valid passport you should be applying for a passport in December since passport application usually takes 13-14 weeks nowadays. You can apply for a passport online at: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/how-apply.html.
8. Once you receive your passport, you will need to apply for a visa to China. For those who reside in the Midwest, you apply for the visa from the Chinese consulate in Chicago: http://chicago.china-consulate.gov.cn/eng/ywzn/qzhz/qz/202206/t20220624_10709057.htm. You will be applying for a tourist visa. For those who reside on the East Coast, you will apply for a China visa from the Chinese consulate New York City office: http://newyork.china-consulate.gov.cn/eng/zjfw/visa/rhsq/202303/t20230316_11042460.htm. For those residing in the West, you will apply for a China visa from either the Chinese consulate in either Los Angeles or San Francisco. Online applications for China visas via designated travel agencies are possible. We will talk more about visa application and using a travel agency to facilitate the task if needed after the application deadline on Nov. 29, 2023.
9. The HIST T190 Literary and Intellectual Traditions: Past and Present through Chinese History and Architecture class is a seven-week summer I class (May 6-June 23). Except for the two weeks traveling to and from China, the other five weeks will be asynchronous online via Canvas. We will have at least one synchronous online orientation meeting per week in the two weeks before departure to make sure we have addressed all questions.
10. We depart for Beijing, China on May 20, 2024, arriving in Beijing on May 21. We leave Shanghai for the US on May 31, arriving in the US on May 31 (probably; we lose a day going to China, and gain a day coming back). We will have daily trips.
11. We will complete the rest of the three weeks of the summer session online back in the US.

Bloomington Sejong Institute

Morten Oxenboell, Director of the East Asian Studies Center at IU Bloomington, will be a guest speaker at the IUN College of Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Research Conference in the Anderson Library Conference Center 105C between 1-2 pm on Apr. 20. The topic of his talk is “Violence and Local Governance in Weak State Societies: Lessons from Medieval Japan, c. 1200—1400”.

Professor Oxenboell got his Ph.D. from the University of Copenhagen in Japanese history. He is an expert in Japanese medieval violence, exploring multiple social and cultural meanings of violence and conflict from the belief that they can raise new questions about the role and status of violence today. He has studied non-governmental violent actors and their significance for state formations and the development of conflict mediation strategies between centers and peripheries. Aside from conflict studies, Dr. Oxenboell examines the premodern political and social history, the culture of violence, martial suicide, and early modern Japanese visions of the medieval past. He has also introduced considerable comparative elements, where he examines similar phenomena in European medieval contexts, as well as in other societies with a relatively low degree of central control. His book Akutō: Rural Conflicts in Medieval Japan, published in 2018, offers the first in-depth analysis in English of an understudied phenomenon in medieval Japanese history: the so-called akutō (literally, “evil bands”). Professor Oxenboell has also published multiple book chapters and journal articles in venues that include the Harvard Journal of Asiatic Studies, History and Theory, Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society, Historisk Tidsskrift, and Monomenta Nipponica.

Professor Oxenboell is the recipient of numerous awards, including a Paul V. McNutt and Kathleen McNutt Watson Professorship in Japanese Studies, Indiana University from 2017-2022, the Mellon Innovating International Research, Teaching, and Collaboration Award, New Frontiers of Creativity and Scholarship Award at IU, and the Mosaic senior faculty fellowship at IU, among others.

The recorded lecture is available at the IUN EAS Gateway website, under Past-Events.

For a complete schedule of the 19th IUN COAS Undergraduate Research Conference, please check here.

Asia Day will be here at IUN on Tuesday, Apr. 4!
