PEKING UNIVERSITY NEWS is an English news website presented by the PKU News Center. A team of student editors and reporters from the natural sciences, health sciences, social sciences, engineering, and liberal-arts departments, PKU News provides a more professional option for educated readers.
Since 2004, PKU News has born the responsibility of being an exclusive window into the university, and from the university outwards to the world at large, showing readers on campus how tightly they are connected to international trends and events, as well as introducing to the rest of the globe a Peking University (PKU, or Beida as it is known to many) filled with character and brimming with knowledge to share.
PKU News is a platform for expression and communication in which a characteristically wide range of opinions and views are tolerated. However, we acknowledge but one purpose: the pursuit of good journalism.
What you'll gain:
>> A platform on which to display and develop your language skills, especially bilingual reading and English writing;
>> An opportunity to be involved in the best globalized events here, e. g. the Beijing Forum, for the ideals of journalism and for Beida’s mission of internationalization;
>> A fresh experience at Beida’s new media group, including audio/video services, an academic database, bulletin board service, social networking services, and micro-blogs; as well as
>> Pay for your original reporting/commentary and Chinese-English translation/editing.
What we need from you:
>> Competence in English and Chinese;
>> Confidence in writing and reporting;
>> An average of one to two hours’ free time per week;
and
>> An APPLICATION FORM.
