Platform
Canvas
UCCS website



The Chinese Language Program in the Department of Asian Studies, UBC, is pleased to announce that the Undergraduate Conference of Chinese Studies (UCCS) is to be held on Canvas from 3 to 24 December, 2020. A fledgling undergraduate forum at UBC, UCCS is an academic meeting devoted to planned programs of undergraduate research on a wide range of subjects related to the teaching and learning of Chinese Studies.

The 2020 online conference adopts the form of Vlog exhibition of video-taped presentations, to accommodate as much attendance as possible. The exhibition has garnered 30 presentations from the CHIN 450+ courses in the academic year of 2019-20, with topics ranging from classical Chinese literature, modern & contemporary Chinese literature, and contemporary Chinese films.



We are honored to announce Professor Christopher Rea (Professor of Modern Chinese Literature, UBC) as our Keynote Speaker, and Professor Kay Duffy (Assistant Professor of Premodern Sinitic Poetry, UBC) and Professor Renren Yang (Assistant Professor of Modern Chinese Popular Culture, UBC) as our Guest Speakers of UCCS 2020.

As the Canvas website serves as the main venue of the conference, an equivalent Vlog exhibition of all presentations will be made available on the UCCS website for public access.

We would like to warmly welcome you to UCCS 2020, engaging fully in the discussions with questions, challenges, and new ideas. Before the holidays shine in the season, we look forward to spending a joyful and rewarding time with you at the conference.
