"As far as science is concerned, as we all know, due to the adjustment of departments in history, Peking University is better than Tsinghua, but Tsinghua has also developed in recent years and established basic classes. Compared with mathematics and chemistry, the gap in physics in Tsinghua is even smaller. "
The whole paragraph is objective and correct. However, personal development is a very personalized issue. Although it has a lot to do with the environment, the type of this relationship is sometimes unpredictable in advance.
Compared with Tsinghua Physics, the Institute of Physics of Peking University is much larger in organizational scale. Before 2004, the enrollment scale of physics in Tsinghua was 60 students per session and 60 students in basic science classes. Of course, only about 20-30 students in the basic science class end up in physics. In 2005 and beyond, the enrollment method was changed to basic science classes to recruit students from mathematics department, physics department and some electronic information departments, with about 250 students in 8 classes, and mathematics and physics were no longer enrolled separately; Judging from the trial situation, there are no more than three classes and about 90 students in the physics direction, so the students in the Institute of Physics of Peking University are much larger.
The same is true of the number of professors. In many cases, the scale will have a great impact on the evaluation and ranking of national disciplines-so even in the period of rapid rise, the physics department of Tsinghua had better only rank third.
But what practical significance will these have for the education and future development of individuals in the undergraduate stage-practical significance is meaningless.
In my opinion, the real advantage of Beijing Institute of Physics is that there are many professors who can give lectures, and some professors even give lectures mainly-theoretically, even the whole undergraduate stage needs a solid and extensive foundation in mathematics and physics. In contrast, there are few professors in the Department of Physics in Tsinghua, and scientific research is generally heavy, so it is impossible to set too high demands on teaching. There are courses that need to be taken care of, both those with teaching talent and those that are not frequent. Tsinghua physics students majoring in theoretical physics sometimes go to Peking University to attend classes.
But at the same time, small scale also means that you will have more opportunities to contact resources and have more one-on-one communication with professors at the undergraduate level. I think this is the advantage of Tsinghua's physics. The professors are all very good. Teaching a class may be influenced by communication skills, but it is different for a person. Every student can get personalized help and guidance from many aspects as long as he is willing.
This small-scale advantage is slightly weakened after the expansion of the basic science edition, but it will still be highlighted after the junior year.
After the basic science class started to be co-organized with the Department of Mathematics, it took time for the two departments to integrate their school-running concepts, which led to the undergraduate students of the Department of Physics in Tsinghua having the best basic level of mathematics in the domestic physics department in recent years-because everyone was also a potential student of the Department of Mathematics at the beginning.
Small-scale Tsinghua physics, through teaching and scientific research, mostly adopts the way of breakthrough in centralized direction: surface physics, condensed state of low temperature and strong magnetic field, and quantum computing has introduced world-class talents in recent years. Other directions, as long as careful investigation, should also be able to find some predecessors. Physics in Peking University is relatively more comprehensive and has more professors, which also has advantages and disadvantages. Since you want to do theoretical physics, you need to know something about it, so it is more realistic to figure out which direction you want to study first, and then see who is in charge of this direction in Tsinghua and Peking University.
Tell the way out after scientific research. Not everyone who wants to study theoretical physics eventually becomes a theoretical doctor. There is always a distance between ideal and reality. The organizational feature of basic science courses is wide caliber. Physics in Tsinghua also has a tradition of training students in all fields-electronics, biophysics, materials, finance and so on. -No road is closed.-But you will also face more confusion and choices.
If we finally embark on the road of theoretical physics, most of the graduates will go abroad. In this respect, before the unified recruitment, the independent basic science class had a great platform advantage, which was not inferior to Peking University Physics. However, the 2005 grade after the expansion of enrollment has not yet reached the examination time. But objectively speaking, when the basic science classes exist independently, relatively speaking, the two classes of physics department face much more difficulties than the students of physics department of Peking University, which is a question of repayment.
These are some of my thoughts. Generally speaking, the internal environment of Tsinghua Physics Department is relatively relaxed and humanized. But for those who have no determination, it is more cruel and more difficult to succeed. Tsinghua Department of Physics is not only a department of physics, but also a part of Tsinghua, which is more important than many other things-for an undergraduate, I think the personality and atmosphere of the school itself are often second only to the professional content.
I hope it helps.
This answer was almost ten years ago, and by the year 20 10, it was already a mistake.
At present, the physical breadth of Peking University is not as wide as HKUST, and its accuracy is not as good as that of Tsinghua. It's bloated and old-fashioned. Don't fool people with decades of history. Tsinghua's physics department is very advanced now, and its score is obviously higher than that of Peking University. The Institute of Physics of Peking University is too big to fail, so we have to set up a center for quantum materials, introduce new people to publish articles, and catch up with the momentum of Tsinghua. In addition, there is an advanced research institute in Tsinghua, which is full of great gods, and the physics departments in China, including Tsinghua's own, are not comparable.
Which is better, Peking University Physics Department or Tsinghua Physics Department? In terms of discipline ranking, the Department of Physics of Peking University ranks first in China. The physics department in Tsinghua has been very good in recent years. After all, it is a top university in China, and Tsinghua has a good academic atmosphere. Schools with strong traditional sciences include Peking University, Nanda University and China University of Science and Technology. Tsinghua's traditional strength is engineering.

Which physics department is better, Peking University, University of Science and Technology or Tsinghua? Physics University is the best, followed by Tsinghua. Nanjing University is also better at physics than Peking University. Physics of Peking University has been declining in recent years.
Mathematics and chemistry are four major science majors. At present, Peking University is better in mathematics and chemistry than Tsinghua, but worse in physics and biology than Tsinghua.
Whether the physics department in Tsinghua is good or the physics department in Peking University is good, the physics department in Peking University is naturally the best, and the physics discipline is the first in Peking University both in history and now (the Ministry of Education ranks first in Peking University, Nantah and HKUST). Tsinghua is slightly inferior (currently ranked 4th).
Is it easy for the physics department of Shanda University to take the postgraduate examination of the physics department of Peking University? The best school in physics department is Peking University. So what if there are more places? It's Peking University. The more places, the more candidates, 30 to 1. Think it over.
It's quite difficult. I remember you said that Shanda was from the Physics Department of Shandong University. That's better.
Whether there is a promising person depends on his personal efforts.
Fudan University, Nanjing University, or Wu Da University can do it. Why do they all go to Peking University?
Which is better, Tsinghua Physics Department or Nanjing University Physics Department? The scale of physics department of NTU is 2-3 times that of Tsinghua. Therefore, the number of teachers is definitely much larger than that of South China. A few years ago, Nantah was very good at physics, and once won the first place, but the scale of this evaluation accounted for a large score. It has basically declined in recent years. Top papers such as S/N/PRL are very poor, and Nantah has no feeling of being a big department at all. On the contrary, the physics department in Tsinghua, though small in scale, performed well.
On the other hand, when it comes to providing goods abroad, Tsinghua has completely killed Nantah. In recent years, Tsinghua's physical quotation is the best in China.
