The difference is…

What kind of a person do I want to be?

You must have asked yourself this question.

A person with independent and critical thinking.

A person with good communication skills.

A person with wholesome and strong personality.

A person with a sense of responsibility to fellow human beings.

A person who is willing to serve or lead the way.

In a word, a whole person.

With the eight modules of training and practice in four years, Whole Person Education could help you become such a person.

The difference is‌

How far is the world?

The teachers, students and staff come from all over the world. We hold different views, different interests. Does this create barriers? No. Through sharing, communication and collision, we become closer.

Globalization connects us more tightly. By adopting another person's perspective, you may have fresh experience and better solutions.

The vision of our students can transcend boarders of nations and ideologies.

UIC and Liberal Arts The difference is…

At UIC, you will find the perfect match between art and science.

Being in a cross-disciplinary melting plot, who could predict the result when the Pulitzer Prize meets Environmental Science?

Besides imparting professional knowledge, a college should give more emphases to general education, which could cultivate the quality of human character. .

We are not educating someone who is pursuing a career only, but a person with broad knowledge and scholarly bearing.

We are pursuing the ideal of humanity.

UIC, a new liberal arts college in China.
