The Department of Chinese Language and Literature, established in 1980, was the University's first department in the humanities. In 1995, the Department was renamed ""The Department of Chinese Literature"". We offer courses and programs leading to B.A., M.A. and Ph.D. degrees with specializations in the following areas: Classical Chinese literature, Chinese intellectual history, Modern and Contemporary Chinese literature, literary theory and cultural studies, Philology and Chinese as a second language.

One of the Department’s strengths is its diversity: it offers a wide range of core courses in classical literature, intellectual history, traditional Chinese philosophy, Modern-Contemporary Chinese literature, cultural studies, literary theory, traditional philology, contemporary linguistics, and writing and composition. In order to strengthen students' competitiveness in the job market, the Department further offers a variety of elective courses such as journalistic writing, cognitive psychology, and children's literature. In addition, students are encouraged to take courses from other departments and colleges, such as the Program of Information and Communication Media and the Teacher Education Program. Students of the Chinese Department may also choose to double major in another discipline on campus.

The Department trains students for advanced academic or professional degrees and prepares them for future careers not only in such professions as teaching and creative or professional writing, but also in a variety of cultural services including news reporting and publishing. The Department also contributes to the University’s general education program, benefiting almost every student on campus by offering courses in Classical literature, developing students' reading and writing skills, increasing their understanding of their cultural heritage, and fostering their creative and critical thinking skills.

In the new millennium, it is committed to further globalizing its curriculum and research programs to make a significant impact not only on the Chinese-speaking scholarly world but also on Sinological studies around the globe. To facilitate this, the Department of Chinese Literature is taking steps to develop an academic network for effective cooperation in the areas of teaching and research. Its goal is to become an internationally renowned center for Chinese Studies.
