CM* 931 - Classical Texts III: Introduction to Classical Chinese Language and the Chinese Classical Texts

Credit(s): 3.00

CM 931 is the third of three introductory Classical Texts courses taught over the first year of the CCM curriculum. In this course, students have more chance to practice making their own translation and interpretation of classical Chinese texts in class using the grammar skills and vocabulary they acquired in the previous two courses. Different topics in Chinese medicine such as Chinese herbology, channel theory, pulse diagnosis, syndrome differentiations are featured in each weekly lecture. Students are provided with an overview of each topic and study texts from various classics that are relevant to the discussion of the topic. In addition to advancing their proficiency in working with classical Chinese texts, students also have a chance to review important concepts and theories that they have learned in other courses in the Chinese medicine program.
