chinin Posted June 22, 2007 at 02:02 PM Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 at 02:02 PM Hello, I'm a Dutch student who wishes to follow a summer language course in Shanghai. After having looked for information, I called the International Students Office of East China Normal University (ECNU) about a summer program. They said that they have a summer program in 2007, but I can't find it anywhere on their website (not in Chinese version nor English). My question is: does anybody know whether there indeed is a summer course at ECNU, or is it safer to enroll for the summer course at Fudan university? And oh yeah, does anybody knows how long it takes to get to the centre of Shanghai from the Fudan university? I hope you guys can help me out, I would be really grateful, thanks!

Take a look at this page: http://lxs.ied.ecnu.edu.cn/site/envision/enlong.htm Short-term Students Recruitment Summer course Chinese course 1 Chinese course2 does anybody knows how long it takes to get to the centre of Shanghai from the Fudan university It's about 40 minutes by car, I think. Here's map showing where Fudan is: http://ditu.google.cn/maps?f=q&hl=zh-CN&q=%E5%A4%8D%E6%97%A6%E5%A4%A7%E5%AD%A6&ie=UTF8&ll=31.132314,121.421585&spn=0.428469,0.6427&z=11&om=1 And a map with East China Normal University (ECNU): http://ditu.google.cn/maps?f=q&hl=zh-CN&q=%E5%A4%8D%E6%97%A6%E5%A4%A7%E5%AD%A6&ie=UTF8&ll=31.132314,121.421585&spn=0.428469,0.6427&z=11&om=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shanghaikai Posted June 27, 2007 at 10:56 AM Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 at 10:56 AM I strongly recommend ECNU over Fudan if accessibility to the center of Shanghai is important to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youpii Posted July 7, 2007 at 09:39 AM Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 at 09:39 AM The uni with the best location would be JiaoTong ... It's next to the XuJiaHui subway station (line 1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanghaikai Posted July 7, 2007 at 04:30 PM Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 at 04:30 PM Jiaotong may be near XuJiaHui (line 1) but ECNU is by ZhongShan Park (line 2, 3, AND 4). ECNU is closer to Nanjing Lu/People's Square and both are about the same distance to Huai Hai Lu. Unless your definition of "center of Shanghai" is different than mine, I'd place my bets with ECNU for accessibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youpii Posted July 7, 2007 at 08:41 PM Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 at 08:41 PM On my map, JiaoTong is closer to People's Square than ECNU. I think being in a walking distance to XuJiaHui is more convenient to have to take lines 2/3/4 to go anywhere. And you still can use the line 1 if needed. Anyway, these two (JiaTong & ECNU) are much closer to the centre than Fudan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
