The British Studies Centre at School of English and International Studies, Beijing Foreign Studies University was established in 1989 under the auspices of the Ministry of Education of China and sponsored by the British Council. The MA programme it offers has developed into one of the leading MA programmes for British studies in China’s institutions of higher learning. The Centre is dedicated to fostering the teaching and research on British politics, history, society, foreign policy, economy, culture, and media, as well as on the European Integration. Since its establishment, the Centre has endeavoured to promote the British Studies in China and produce academic talents in this field, with 134 graduates awarded an MA degree and 37 current students studying in British Studies. Our graduates, who have earned a high reputation for their excellent English, solid knowledge and independent research capability, are working actively in key positions in universities and colleges, research institutes, publishing houses, media, business enterprises and companies. Currently, the Centre enrolls about 12 new students annually, who will study two years and a half at the Centre. Apart from the MA programme, the Centre also offers courses on British society and culture for undergraduates.
Between 1989 and 1992, six British teachers selected by the British Council came to the Centre, offering a series of courses on British literature, history, foreign policy, economy, society and culture. Between 1990 and 1992, five faculty members of the Centre, sponsored by the British Council, studied at Warwick University and obtained a Master’s Degree in Modern British Studies. Between 1998 and 1999, four of them won the sponsorship of EU-China Higher Education Cooperation Programme and went to some prestigious European institutions such as European University Institute in Italy, and Edinburgh University in the U.K. to do further research on the European Union, particularly on the relationship between the UK and Europe. Moreover, they also have had other experiences of research and further studies in the UK, the US and other countries through the channels of State Scholarship Fund, Fulbright Scholarship and other exchange programmes.
Currently the Centre has 7 full-time faculty members, including 3 professors and 4 associate professors. Since its inception, a dozen of foreign experts have offered courses at the MA programme. To broaden the horizon of students, it also regularly invites prestigious scholars at home and abroad to lecture on the latest developments in British studies.
