Historia
RUC was founded in 1937 as Shaanbei Public School during the war and renamed the People's University of China in 1950, when it became the first new-style comprehensive university of the People's Republic. Its original mission was training cadres for economic reconstruction.
In 1954 it was designated one of the first national key universities, and it developed China's first faculties of economics, finance, statistics, law and journalism as separate disciplines.
RUC joined Project 211 (1996), Project 985 (2003) and Double First Class (2017). Its Suzhou campus opened in 2016 and focuses on international education and the Silk Road School.
