Guizhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (贵州中医药大学): What the Guizhou Admission Brochure Lists for International Students
If you want to know which programmes Guizhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (贵州中医药大学, Guizhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine) offers to international students, the Guizhou provincial admission brochure (2026 edition, produced April 2026) is one official reference. It lists the university's bachelor's, master's and non-degree programmes, along with study length and teaching language. It does not give tuition, scholarship amounts or application deadlines, so those must be checked directly with the university.
