An exciting place to live

Learning doesn’t stop at the end of class. You’ll be fully immersed in Chinese culture and there’s so much to learn just by going about your daily life here. As an international student, you’ll find locals will be keen to get to know you and curious to find out about where you’ve come from.

If you’re already thinking about the longer term, we’ve got you covered. Tianjin is booming, more so than any other region in China. It’s also home to one of the largest ports in China.
