康奈尔大学与中国的关系

康奈尔大学成立于1865年。自其创始之日起 “让任何人都可以学习到任何学科”便成为了这所大学独特而宏远的办学目标。

沿袭这一传统，康奈尔大学不断开拓新的教学领域。建校依始，康奈尔大学校长安德鲁怀特就敞开大门，欢迎国际学者及学生的到来，这其中也包括来自中国的学子们。

一个多世纪以来，康奈尔大学与中国之间一直保持着友好互惠的合作伙伴关系。如今，这一源远流长的合作伙伴关系更加显示出了勃勃生机。目前, 康奈尔大学约有600位来自于中国的教授、学生、研究人员、访问学者及随行家属。更令人欣喜的是，康奈尔大学最近又设立了独具特色的中国与亚太研究专业。该本科专业的每一位毕业生, 除了要接受严格而系统的语言训练之外, 还将在首都华盛顿参与中国研究及政策实践各领域的实习活动, 并前往北京大学进行一个学期的学习与研究。

2005年，秉承一贯的教育创新理念，康奈尔大学再开美国高等教育界之先河，响誉全美的暑期学院首创了中国—康奈尔大学预科项目(CCCPP),招收来自中国的品学兼优的高中生。

在此，康奈尔大学诚挚地邀请您参与这一富有开拓性的预科项目。

"As Chinese high school students, we don’t have many chances to experience life at an excellent American university. The CCCPP program offers us a good opportunity. I gained a lot from it—not only a nice six-week experience on the gorgeous campus, but also great self-improvement. The professors and academic atmosphere really impressed me. This program widened my horizons. I am not good at praising, but I suggest that a Chinese student who intends to be the best should apply to this program."

China-Cornell College Preparatory Program

The Cornell–China Connection

Cornell University was founded in 1865 with the unique and ambitious goal of becoming an institution of higher education “where any person can find instruction in any study.”

As a result of this decision, the University has been breaking new intellectual ground ever since. Cornell’s first president, Andrew Dickson White, himself a scholar and world traveler, welcomed international students and professors from the beginning, and Chinese students were among those who chose to enroll.

For more than a century, there has been a particularly robust and mutually beneficial Cornell–China connection. That tradition flourishes today. In fact, some 600 Chinese professors, students, research scholars, exchange visitors, and family members are currently at the University. In addition, Cornell recently established an undergraduate major in China and Asia–Pacific Studies that features rigorous language acquisition, work and study in Washington, D.C. on topics related to China, and a semester at Peking University.

In 2005, in keeping with the Cornell spirit of educational innovation, Cornell initiated the very first program of its kind involving the enrollment of Chinese high school students at an American university: The China–Cornell College Preparatory Program (CCCPP), a part of Cornell’s award-winning Summer College program.

Now, Cornell University is honored to invite you to participate in this ground-breaking program.
