The Chinese Programme is a flagship division within the NTU School of Humanities and conducts courses in Chinese. Inheriting the spiritual tradition of Nanyang University, the Chinese Programme's mission is to promote the study and appreciation of the Chinese language and culture. Committed to carrying forward these traditions as well as creating new horizons, it acts locally to encompass the region and at the same time has a global vision to understand the contemporary world.

The rapid development of the Programme owes much to the strong support from the University, external institutions, and even common Singaporeans who have made generous contributions. This has made possible the establishment of endowment funds and awards which benefit Chinese major students. These include the Lee Kuan Yew Gold Medal, the Shanghai Book Co Scholarship & Bursary Fund, the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce & Foundation (SCCCF) Endowed Scholarship, the Wan Boo Sow Award, the Wan Boo Sow Gold Medal cum Cash Award, Lotus on Water Gold Medal and Book Prizes.​​​​​​​​ Please find more info on NTU Chinese Programme Scholarship.

Chinese is a four-year direct honours programme which provides a concrete foundation in both classical and modern Chinese literature, a deeper understanding of the Chinese language, and a broader perspective on China's History and the Chinese Diaspora in Southeast Asia.

The programme aims to equip students with multidisciplinary research skills and bilingual capabilities. Our faculty members are dedicated to high-quality teaching and research. We have strong and active interests in Modern Chinese Literature, Chinese Thoughts and History, the Chinese Language, and especially the Chinese Diaspora in Singapore and Malaysia.

The Minor in Translation and the Minor in Chinese Creative Writing are two distinctive programmes within the Chinese Programme. Being professional and practical, this programme is open to all NTU students who are interested in receiving training in Chinese and English or literary writings.

We also partnered with the National Arts Council to run a Chinese creative writing residency programme, proving a platform for outstanding local and international outstanding writers to engage in creative writing and communication. In addition to their creation, writers are also engaged in teaching related to creative writing. The writing residencies programme creates a literary and humanistic atmosphere on the beautiful NTU campus, facilitates exchanges between experienced writers and young writers, and strengthens the interaction between writers, students, and the community. Local writers Yeng Pway Ngon, Chia Joo Ming, and Wong Koi Tet, as well as internationally renowned writers Su Wei-Chen, Su Tong, Hon Lai Chu, and Lee Yung Ping, have all served as Writers-in-Residence.
