Xiamen University Youth Scholar Forum 2018

        On April 6th, 1921, Xiamen University, the first university founded by overseas Chinese in modern Chinese education history, was established. At the time, the school buildings had not yet been built, so the opening ceremony was held in Jimei School Village. Although the first class of students amounted to just about one hundred, Xiamen University, founded by the well-known patriotic overseas Chinese leader Tan Kah Kee, upheld the idea that the quality of teachers is a top priority and the philosophy of “treating teachers with sincerity, and rewarding their work with generous salary. It also engaged renowned professors and scholars courteously. As a result, many prominent talents and famous scholars were gathered in XMU at that time.

         97 years have witnessed the developments of Xiamen University. Now it has more than 40,000 students on campus and has become a first-class national wide and influential comprehensive university worldwide with a wide range of disciplines and a strong faculty. Benefiting from the long-term key constructions under the national 211 Project and 985 Project, Xiamen University has now a full access into the four major global universities rankings that have gained international recognitions. According to the 2017 U.S. News ranking, it ranked the 344th in the world and the 12th among universities in mainland China. In the fourth round of China Discipline Ranking, 7 first-level disciplines of Xiamen University lists among top 10% and 15 first-level disciplines lists among top 10%-20%. In addition, it has 12 disciplines that have entered the top 1% of ESI. In terms of nature index, it ranks among the top 100 in the world and the 9th among universities in mainland China. At present, the university is selected as a Class A university of China’s Double First-class scheme, which sets out a new journey of building itself into a world-class university.

        Embracing the vast ocean, Xiamen has hosted visitors from around the world.
