The doctoral program in Literature with a focus on Applied Linguistics at Shanghai Jiao Tong University (2005-2008) offers comprehensive training in language education and research.

Core responsibilities include teaching Chinese to foreign language students, covering intensive reading, speaking, and listening skills, along with undergraduate courses in Contemporary Chinese and Chinese Literature and Culture. Research activities focus on comparative analysis of Chinese and US business teaching materials, specifically examining word list differences and developing specialized corpus for Chinese Business textbooks. The program is housed within the university's School of Humanities, which boasts a strong faculty including 3 professors, 16 associate professors, and multiple research fellows. The curriculum emphasizes both theoretical linguistics and practical teaching methodologies, with particular attention to second language acquisition theory and corpus linguistics applications in business language education. Students must complete comprehensive coursework, pass a mid-term evaluation in the third semester, and submit a dissertation proposal demonstrating original research contribution to the field.
