In 2023, state-owned universities ranked in the top ten: Tsinghua University, Peking University, Zhejiang University, China University of Science and Technology, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China Academy of Sciences, Fujian University, Nanjing University and Sun Yat-sen University.

1. There are 2756 universities (excluding military schools) in China, including undergraduate 1270 and specialist 1486. Among the undergraduate colleges, there are 849 public undergraduate colleges, 4 12 private undergraduate colleges, and 9 Chinese-foreign cooperatively-run undergraduate colleges with independent legal personality.

2. The distribution of public universities in various provinces and cities in China is very uneven. Among them, there are 665,438+0 public undergraduate colleges in Beijing, followed by 50 in Jiangsu and 45 in Shandong.

3. Among the top provinces, except Jiangsu, Hubei, Guangdong and Sichuan, Hebei and Henan rank fifth and seventh respectively, while Shanghai and Shaanxi, which are recognized as strong provinces, are not in the top 10, which is a bit unexpected.

Of course, quantity and the strength of a school are not the same concept. Although the number of undergraduate colleges in Henan and Hebei ranks high, the number of universities with strong strength is very small, and there are only two universities with first-class disciplines in the two provinces. Considering the population of each province and the comprehensive strength of colleges and universities, the provinces rich in higher education resources in China mainly include Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Shaanxi, Hubei, Liaoning and Tianjin.

Undergraduate course is a basic part of higher education, and generally recruits ordinary high school graduates or those with equivalent education. The length of study is four years for most majors and five years for a few majors (the length of study for part-time undergraduate education depends on the situation).

Undergraduate education is mainly divided into full-time undergraduate and part-time undergraduate. Full-time undergraduates are mainly admitted by the national unified entrance examination of ordinary colleges and universities, and they are studying at school, and their academic qualifications are ordinary higher education. Part-time undergraduate courses are usually adult education, online education, open education and higher education self-study exams.
