Academic Program
This program is held collaboratively in conjunction with Tsinghua University in Beijing, China. The main location for the program will be at Tsinghua and its associated facilities in Beijing. The program will be approximately 7 weeks from mid-June through mid-August and students will receive 6 graded Notre Dame academic credits for their work. The program will consist of both course work and project work. For both components of the program, Notre Dame students and Tsinghua students will participate jointly and collaboratively, making the program a truly international experience and a good background for modern engineering of multinational scope.
Summer 2012
In the summer of 2012 a pilot program will be conducted with approximately four Notre Dame students. For this summer, the program will be entirely project-based work in collaboration with Chinese undergraduate students at Tshingua. Students will receive 6 academic credits for full participation in the program.
Summer 2013+
In the summers of 2013 and beyond, the program will be comprised of three credits of project-based work on teams with Chinese students and three credits of coursework. The courses offered each summer will be a required junior-level course in either of the AME programs.
