Peking University
The
Peking University is an inclusive and state
key university. Locally called the Yan Yuan
(which translates to “the garden of Yan),
the campus is located in Beijing’s western
suburb of Haidian District.
It has a total area of over
two million square meter or over two hundred
hectares and stands near the Summer Palace
and the Yuanmingyuan Garden.
The Peking University boasts an impressive
faculty which consists of over fifty members
of the CAS (Chinese Academy of Sciences),
seven members of the CAE (Chinese Academy of
Engineering), and fourteen members of the
TWAS (Third World Academy of Sciences).
This institution has successfully
amalgamated research on key subjects in the
sciences with the appropriate personnel
training which demands only the highest
level of dedicated knowledge and
professional expertise as required by the
state’s socialist transformation. It aims
not only for growth in research work and
teaching but also for the advancement of
interaction and joint promotion among
several different disciplines.
The Peking University therefore has become
the heart of research and teaching and a
learning institute of a different type,
taking on different branches of learning
such as humanities and the social sciences,
applied and basic sciences, sciences of
medicine, education, and management. Its
main goal is to be among the best
universities globally in the forthcoming
future.
