Huaqiao University is a comprehensive university with overseas Chinese affairs as its main feature, which has a high academic reputation and teaching level. The school has strong research strength and academic influence in overseas Chinese affairs, foreign languages and literature. At the same time, the school pays attention to cultivating students' practical ability and innovative spirit, which provides students with broad development space and opportunities. In contrast, Shantou University has a certain academic level in engineering, management and other fields, but its overall strength is relatively weak. So on the whole, Huaqiao University is better.
