Institution overview

Tsinghua University is a public research university in Beijing, China. Established in 1911 as Tsing Hua Imperial College, it developed from an institution preparing students for overseas study into a comprehensive university. Its main campus occupies a historic garden setting in the northwestern part of the city. The university offers undergraduate, master's and doctoral education across engineering, science and a wide range of other disciplines. Its academic organisation includes humanities, social sciences, economics and management, law, medicine, and art and design. Engineering and technology form a substantial part of its educational and research activity, alongside work that connects scientific, cultural and social questions. Chinese is the main language across much of the curriculum, while selected programmes and courses are available in English. Schools and departments maintain distinct degree requirements, research groups and teaching facilities. The campus combines libraries, laboratories, cultural spaces and student services with its historical buildings and landscape. Tsinghua's admissions information distinguishes study levels and applicant routes, allowing prospective students to identify the specific language, academic and application requirements for their chosen programme.
