Présentation
Zhejiang University is China's largest comprehensive research university by breadth of disciplines and, after Tsinghua, the strongest in engineering and computer science. It is spread over seven campuses in and around Hangzhou, the city that hosts Alibaba, NetEase and a large share of China's digital economy.
ZJU has the largest international student body of any Chinese university — over 5,500 students from more than 140 countries — and offers English-taught degrees across engineering, agriculture, medicine, business and the arts.
Histoire
Zhejiang University was founded in 1897 as Qiushi Academy, making it one of the oldest modern higher education institutions in China. Its name Qiushi ("seeking truth") remains its motto.
It moved west to Guizhou during the war and returned in 1946, then in 1998 four institutions — the original ZJU plus Hangzhou University, Zhejiang Agricultural University and Zhejiang Medical University — merged to form today's comprehensive university. That merger explains its unusual combination of engineering excellence with top-ranked agriculture and medicine.
ZJU joined Project 211, Project 985 and the Double First Class plan, and in 2019 it opened the International Campus in Haining, a dedicated English-language campus with joint programmes delivered with the University of Edinburgh and Imperial College London.
