On April 17, 2018, TBC held it’s Spring semester Internship Showcase event. Joined by nearly 50 fellow professionals & peers, TBC students presented on their experiences interning in Beijing this semester. We had students working in different organizations including the US Embassy, Colombian Embassy, United Family Hospital, Edelman, Project Pengyou, Branditat, Bankorus JiTu Studios, JingJobs, and Beijing Field Studies. Take a look at their wonderful poster displays and photos from the event below.

Over this past weekend, some of our students enrolled at Minzu University of China took their annual Spring Outing – this year, to Gubei Water Town. Situated about a 2-hour drive northeast of Beijing, the April weather made it absolutely perfect to explore for a spring outing. It surrounds various canals and offshoots of Yuanyang lake.
If you ever want to get a taste of Old Beijing, by far one of the best ways is to visit the hutongs. They’ve conceptually been around all the way since the 1200s, and in their most modern forms exist as protected alleyways and streets surrounded by old traditional houses and neighborhoods in the heart of Beijing and are recognized in China to be an important part of cultural heritage in the city.
