About Nankai University
Nankai University was established as a private university in 1919 and began teaching using a mixture of Chinese and western methods. The university excelled in sciences initially, and became one of the most famous private universities in China as it developed through the 1920-30s.
Among its first intake was the first Premier of the People’s Republic of China, Zhou Enlai, whose statue you can see at the South Gate near to the Yiyuan accommodation building.
The university is now ranked in the top 10 public universities in China, with its mathematics, chemistry, history and business/economics programmes rated as some of the best in China. The student population is around 23,000, of which 10,000 are studying post-graduate courses, and around 10% are international students.
