Sinology for University Students
In recent years, many students find that they are offered a course called Sinology, which means the study of Chinese language, literature and culture. Interested but also puzzled, students present divided opinions toward this course. Some show their support to Sinology for they believe that this course can provide them an access to their splendid culture. Besides, they believe that in this globalization era when they are being greatly influenced by the western ideology, it is high time that they also spent some time learning culture of the motherland. Nevertheless, others are not so supportive of Sinology. For these students, Sinology is kind of outdated without practical usage so there is no need to learn about it. For my part, despite the fact that Chinese culture is always there for us to cherish, a more systematic and organized course is always preferred. So I am delighted to have been offered such a course as Sinology which helps us understand our own culture better.
