Overview

The history of the School of Foreign Languages from Beihang University, which offers the Linguistics and Applied Linguistics in Foreign Languages program, is one of dedication and commitment by a team of remarkable people who set up and nurtured what has now developed into one of the top institutions in China for foreign language teaching and research.

The School, grown out of the Foreign Languages Department (1977-2007), started to enroll undergraduates in 1978 and graduate students in Linguistics and Applied Linguistics in 1985 respectively, one of the first institutions in China offering such programs. With the approval of the Ministry of Education in 2010, the School now offers doctoral programs in all fields related to Foreign Languages and Literatures.

The School’s full degree programs (BA, MA, and PhD) feature the application of computer technology in language and translation teaching and research, corpus-based linguistic studies and translation studies, cognitive linguistics, and rhetoric and communication.
