Center For International Education
The Center for International Education (UIR-CIE) is a part of the University of International Relations, but separate both in mission and location. Its primary function is to provide Chinese language training programs for foreign students studying in China. The center provides intensive training programs and short-term programs in addition to semester programs. Its mission is now very similar to that of Beijing Language and Culture University(BLCU), being commissioned for teaching Chinese language and culture to foreign students. UIR-CIE has a sub-campus outside of the main UIR campus. It is located in close proximity to that of BLCU and other Chinese universities in Haidian District, Beijing.

Famous quotes containing the words center and/or education:
“New York is what Paris was in the twenties ... the center of the art world. And we want to be in the center. It’s the greatest place on earth.... I’ve got a lot of friends here and I even brought my own cash.”
—John Lennon (1940–1980)
“The proper aim of education is to promote significant learning. Significant learning entails development. Development means successively asking broader and deeper questions of the relationship between oneself and the world. This is as true for first graders as graduate students, for fledging artists as graying accountants.”
—Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
