Since its founding in 1898, Peking University has been a leader in academic freedom and scientific research in China. As China’s first national university with multidisciplinary academic programmes, it has always been at the forefront of China’s modernization by fostering creativity in young minds, generating new ideas that advance the progress of human civilization, and developing cutting-edge science and technologies.
Take a look at how Peking University has set out to become a world-class university with continued research innovations in basic and applied sciences, ranging from mathematics, chemistry, and physics, to materials science, ecology and medicine.
