Founded in 1911, Tsinghua University is considered by many to be the best university in all of China. Covering 356 hectares, it is also one of the largest universities in China. Many celebrities have graduated from or worked at Tsinghua, including Nobel laureates Tsung-Dao Lee and Yang Zhenning, former Chinese president Hu Jintao and author Wen Yiduo.
The university established its Research Center for Technical Innovation back in 2000, as a key center of research in the humanities and social sciences. Being a national think tank, it focuses on managing technical innovation, strategy and policy for science and technology and high-tech ventures.
In 2009, the university established a China Data Center, intended to provide a data platform to assist academic research and teaching in the relevant disciplines. The center is expected to serve as a think tank for the government with a focus on in-depth research across the core issues of Chinese society.
