Our iCarnegie Summer Camp is the perfect way for burgeoning students to a leg up on the competition in the technology field. The institute is a joint venture between Carnegie Melon University and the Chinese Government, and at the Wuxi Carnegie Institute you will receive instruction and guidance on all the latest trends and developments in China’s ever evolving high tech industry. The length of the trip is completely customizable and up to your discretion, as it can be designed to run for 10-14 days or for as long as 21 days. In addition, you will also be given interactive instruction and lessons on a wide range of vital Chinese subjects:  Chinese language and characters, calligraphy, cooking, martial arts, recreational games, and more!

In addition to the knowledge you’ll gain at the institute, you’ll also get to venture out to China’s cultural and commercial capitals. You’ll first arrive in Beijing, where you’ll get to visit China’s political center in Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City, and you’ll then set out for Jiangsu province, the engine that is driving China’s dramatic growth. You’ll spend time in Nanjing and Suzhou, both of which have much to offer in the way of attractions, both ancient and modern. You’ll end your tour in Shanghai, China’s largest city and commercial capital.

Another valuable component of this program are the personal contacts and connections you’ll make. During your stay at the iCarnegie Institute you’ll collaborate and interact with your Chinese counterparts, granting you key insight into the Chinese educational system. Of course, you’ll also have the opportunity to make new friends as well as network with China’s technological elite.
