As Chinese society changes, higher education is undergoing major transformations. The
university model of the United States and other Western countries has a powerful influence. New
trends in Chinese higher education are attracting the attention of global educators. Since the
establishment of Western-oriented modern universities at the end of nineteenth century, Chinese
higher education has continued to evolve. Over the past two decades, however, tremendous
economic development in China has stimulated reforms in higher education that have resulted in
some remarkable changes.
The first modern institution, Peiyang University, was founded in Tianjin. The university
changed its name to Tianjin University in 1951 and became one of the leading universities in
China: Next, Jiaotong University was founded in Shanghai in 1896. In the 1950s, most of this
university was moved to Xi'an, an ancient capital city in northwest China, and became Xi'an
Jiaotong University; the part of the university remaining in Shanghai was renamed Shanghai
Jiaotong University.
Tianjin University celebrated its hundredth anniversary in 1995, followed by Xi'an Jiaotong
and Shanghai Jiaotong Universities in 1996. Other leading universities, such as Zhejiang
University (1897), Beijing University (1898), and Nanjing University (1902) also recently
celebrated their hundredth anniversaries, one after another. These celebrations marked the
beginning of a new chapter in Chinese higher education.
