For such programmes, Indian medical aspirants can also learn Mandarin in the country. Students can also visit the Chinese Plus website to enroll in Mandarin courses – chineseplus.net/?lang=en

“If you are an undergraduate student, you must register for Chinese-taught credit courses. If your Chinese language proficiency does not meet the requirements of your host university, you must take one academic year Chinese language/preparatory courses in one of the 10 designated universities and pass the required tests before moving on to your major studies. Failure to pass the required tests will lead to the automatic termination of your scholarship,” the official website states.
