Tsinghua University
Founded in 1911, Tsinghua University--one of China’s most
famous universities--is situated in a former Qing Dynasty
imperial garden surrounded by many historical sites in
northwest Beijing. Tsinghua’s evolution over the past 98
years has been closely linked to China’s development.
Tsinghua University today subscribes to the education ideal
of comprehensive mastery of Chinese and foreign, classic
and modern knowledge in the sciences and the humanities.
This ideal is inspired by the mottos “Self-discipline and Social
Commitment,” “Rigor, Diligence, Veracity, and Creativity,”
“Actions Speak Louder Than Words,” and its core spirit
“Patriotism, Devotion and Pursuing Excellence”.
Tsinghua University has produced more than 160,000
graduates, many of whom have become distinguished
scholars and leaders in all walks of life. They have
contributed significantly to China’s economic, social,
cultural, educational and scientific development.
Tsinghua is an important center in China for nurturing
talented students and promoting advanced scientific
research. A comprehensive, research-oriented, and
open university, Tsinghua has developed an integrated
education platform in science, engineering, the humanities,
and medicine.
Taking talent cultivation as its basic task, Tsinghua
University has an accomplished faculty, a comprehensive
program of interdiscipl inary studies, a conducive
environment for teaching and research, and a broad
range of cultural activities. All of these advantages provide
its students a pleasant environment for their all-round
development. Aiming at nurturing talented students with
innovative spirit, Tsinghua has developed a complete
system for undergraduate and postgraduate education
and provides many off-campus high level training
programs.
Tsinghua University is dedicated to the idea that scientific research should meet the strategic demands of the nation. The University is also committed to keeping its scientific research on the cutting edge of world scientific developments. It promotes both basic and applied research and has made significant achievements through independent innovation. The University stresses social service, the promotion of technology transfer, and economic aid for the development of provinces and regions throughout China.
One of the earliest Chinese universities to invite foreign
teachers, Tsinghua University in recent years has
established sound relations with many world-famous
universities. More and more overseas scholars and
students come to study and work at Tsinghua and many
important international meetings are held here. The
University also welcomes a number of renowned figures
from various countries, including state and international
organization heads, university presidents, Nobel Prize
winners, and CEOs of multinational corporations.
In the new century, Tsinghua University will draw on
its heritage of excellence and make full use of its
comprehensive advantages to mold itself into a world-
class university and contribute further to China’s
modernization and prosperity.
