Asian and African Languages and Literatures at Nanjing Normal University is an undergraduate program that provides students with comprehensive language training and cultural knowledge focused on a range of Asian and African languages and their associated literary traditions. The curriculum emphasizes proficiency in selected languages — such as those of key Asian and African regions — alongside studies in linguistics, literary analysis, cultural studies, and cross-cultural communication. Students learn to read, write, speak, and interpret the target language(s) while gaining deep insight into the histories, cultures, and literary expressions of societies across Asia and Africa. Through language practice, critical study of texts, and exploration of cultural contexts, graduates develop strong communication, analytical, and intercultural competencies. This prepares them for careers in education, international communication, translation and interpretation, diplomacy, cultural exchange, media and publishing, and related fields that require linguistic expertise and cultural literacy, as well as for further study in linguistics, regional studies, or global humanities.
