■ What does ■HND study?
HND is the abbreviation of British National Diploma in Higher Education, which is equivalent to the level of the first and second years of British universities. HND is widely offered in British universities, with thousands of majors. At present, the majors offered in China are business, computer, hotel management, tourism management and mechanical engineering.
The person in charge of the China Study Abroad Service Center said that HDN is a pure English education and is taught in English. The number of students in this program should be several hundred in a school, with about 38 students in each class and about 3 to 4 classes in each college. There should be a certain level division between classes, such as ABCD class, to take care of the needs of students at different levels. In the teaching process, the ratio of academic theory to vocational skills education is 4: 6. Because of the high demand for practicality and skills, a teacher should not only be good at foreign languages, but also have relevant working background. Liu Yanan, director of the Development Planning and Evaluation Department of Beijing Humanities University, said that HND is a higher vocational education for high school graduates. In China, students need to study in China for three years. In the first year, foreign languages are mainly strengthened, and bilingual teaching is adopted in the second and third years. The relevant teachers all have the background of studying abroad. According to its own characteristics, Humanities University has set up business majors, such as logistics, e-commerce, business administration, international trade and so on.
■ Who is suitable to learn HND?
It is understood that HND belongs to higher vocational education, mainly for high school graduates, and universities will comprehensively evaluate students before entering the school. HND is not suitable for students who want to engage in academic research in the future. It focuses on cultivating students' team spirit, communication ability and autonomous learning ability. After three years of study, students can obtain HND certificate. Different from other Sino-foreign cooperation projects, students are eligible to apply for a British bachelor's degree after studying in China. If you go to the UK for further study, 15 British universities will admit you. These universities are well-known national universities on the list, and they are ready to accept overseas students to complete their undergraduate studies. Because there is a unified teaching system, students will not encounter the problem of inconsistent academic system and curriculum when they study in the UK in the future. Domestic students can get a bachelor's degree after studying in a British school for one year and a master's degree after studying for another year.
■ Getting HND certificate is convenient to enter foreign companies.
If you want to work in China, it is recommended to go to foreign-related institutions and foreign companies, and it is best to go to enterprises established in China by Commonwealth countries. You will find this certificate very useful. In China, the tuition fee of HND is about10.6 million yuan a year, while the tuition fee of preparatory classes for studying abroad in the market is generally 30,000-50,000 yuan a year. The general price of Sino-foreign cooperative education projects is 50 thousand to 80 thousand a year, and the price of HND is basically the same as that of domestic higher vocational colleges.
■ The quality of Chinese and foreign school-running projects is guaranteed.
Capital university of economics and business Adult Education College in Beijing, Distance and Continuing Education College of Beijing Jiaotong University, beijing international studies university College of Continuing Education, Beijing Yuda Business School, Beijing Humanities University, etc. Participated in this project. Liu Yanan of Beijing Humanities University said that most of the teachers who teach HND in humanities universities are graduate students who have returned from overseas study. They have relevant professional background and can carry out bilingual teaching. China will also send outstanding "returnees" to participate in school teaching. At the same time, Scotland's supervision institutions send special personnel to inspect the teaching of schools and the situation of teachers, libraries and student dormitories every year.
