{{Further|Boxer Indemnity Scholarship Program}}

=== Early 20th century (1911–1949) ===

Tsinghua University was established in Beijing during a tumultuous period of national upheaval and conflicts with foreign powers which culminated in the [[Boxer Rebellion]], an uprising against foreign influence in China. After the suppression of the revolt by [[Eight-Nation Alliance|a foreign alliance]] including the United States, the ruling Qing dynasty was required to pay indemnities to alliance members. United States Secretary of State [[John Hay]] suggested that the US$30 million Boxer indemnity allotted to the United States was excessive. After much negotiation with Qing ambassador [[Liang Cheng]], president of the United States [[Theodore Roosevelt]] obtained approval from the United States Congress in 1909 to reduce the indemnity payment by US$10.8 million, on the condition that the funds would be used as scholarships for Chinese students to study in the United States.<ref name="学校沿革-清华大学">{{Cite web|title=学校沿革-清华大学|url=https://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/xxgk/xxyg.htm|access-date=6 April 2023|website=Tsinghua University|archive-date=6 April 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230406160834/https://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/xxgk/xxyg.htm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=History|url=https://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/en/About/History.htm|access-date=6 April 2023|website=Tsinghua University|archive-date=7 December 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201207102209/https://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/en/About/History.htm|url-status=live}}</ref>

During the [[Second Sino-Japanese War]], many Chinese universities were forced to evacuate their campuses to avoid the Japanese invasion. In 1937, Tsinghua University, [[Peking University]] and [[Nankai University]] merged to form the [[National Changsha Temporary University]], located in [[Changsha]], [[Hunan]]. The merged university later became the [[National Southwestern Associated University]], located in [[Kunming]], Yunnan.

===Admissions===
Admission to Tsinghua for both undergraduate and graduate schools is extremely competitive. Undergraduate admissions for domestic students is decided through the [[National Higher Education Entrance Examination|gaokao]], the Chinese national college entrance exam, which allows students to list Tsinghua University among their preferred college choices. While selectivity varies by province, the sheer number of high school students applying for college each year has resulted in overall acceptance rates far lower than 0.1% of all test takers.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.theatlantic.com/china/archive/2013/06/chinas-unfair-college-admissions-system/276995/|title=China's Unfair College Admissions System|last=Fu|first=Yiqin|date=19 June 2013|work=The Atlantic|access-date=29 June 2018|archive-date=29 June 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180629131139/https://www.theatlantic.com/china/archive/2013/06/chinas-unfair-college-admissions-system/276995/|url-status=live}}</ref>

Admission to Tsinghua's graduate schools is also very competitive. Only about 16% of MBA applicants are admitted each year.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/06_02/b3966074.htm|title=China's B-School Boom|date=9 January 2006|website=[[BusinessWeek]]|access-date=22 April 2012|archive-date=16 April 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120416054908/http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/06_02/b3966074.htm}}</ref>

===Research===
Research at Tsinghua University is mainly supported by government funding from national programs and special projects. In the areas of science and technology, funding from these sources totals over 20 billion yuan, which subsidizes more than 1,400 projects every year conducted by the university.

Tsinghua University School of Law was established in 1929 after Tsinghua College was renamed Tsinghua University. Legal education in Tsinghua University at the time focused on international affairs and Chinese legal studies. Courses on political science and economics could also be found on students' curriculum. Before the Japanese army invaded Beijing in 1937, the School of Law developed greatly. Many Chinese legal scholars graduated during that era, including Wang Tieya (王铁崖), Gong Xiangrui (龚祥瑞) and Lou Bangyan (楼邦彦).<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/publish/law/6878/2011/20110317100631037535966/20110317100631037535966_.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170905002309/http://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/publish/law/6878/2011/20110317100631037535966/20110317100631037535966_.html|archive-date=5 September 2017|website=Tsinghua University|script-title=zh:清华大学法学院|access-date=29 October 2017}}</ref>

In 1952, in response to [[1952 reorganisation of Chinese higher education|the government policy]] of turning Tsinghua University into an engineering-focused university, the law school was dismissed; the faculty were appointed to other universities, including Peking University and Peking College of Political Science and Law (the predecessor of China University of Political Science and Law).<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/publish/law/3240/index.html|website=Tsinghua University|script-title=zh:清华大学法学院|access-date=29 October 2017|archive-date=11 November 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171111135114/http://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/publish/law/3240/index.html|url-status=live}}</ref> Until 1995, there was no formal "school of law" at Tsinghua University, yet courses on law were still taught in Tsinghua University from the early 1980s.<ref>{{Cite web|title=学院的历史沿革-清华大学法学院|url=https://www.law.tsinghua.edu.cn/xygk/xyjs/xydlsyg.htm|access-date=23 April 2022|website=law.tsinghua.edu.cn|language=zh|quote=After 1978, the country began to attach importance to legal system construction and legal education.

===Tsinghua clique===
{{Main|Tsinghua clique}}
The term [[Tsinghua clique]] refers to a group of Chinese Communist Party politicians that have graduated from Tsinghua University. They are members of the [[fourth generation of Chinese leadership]], and are purported to hold reformist and hesitantly pro-democratic ideas (a number have studied in the United States following graduation from Tsinghua, and some are said to be influenced by the reform ideals of [[Hu Yaobang]]). In the PRC, their ascendance to power began in 2008 at the [[17th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party]].<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=7I0gRcqNoRgC&q=%22Qinghua+clique%22&pg=PA197|title=China's elite politics: political transition and power balancing|last=Bo|first=Zhiyue|year=2007|publisher=World Scientific|isbn=978-981-270-041-4|access-date=22 April 2012|archive-date=8 August 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220808200443/https://books.google.com/books?id=7I0gRcqNoRgC&q=%22Qinghua+clique%22&pg=PA197|url-status=live}}</ref>

== Canteens ==
'''Student canteens'''

* The Zijingyuan Canteen is located at the northeast corner of Tsinghua University, within the Zijing Student Apartments zone. The canteen has five floors (including one basement level), with a building area of 11,671 m², and can accommodate over 3,500 people dining at the same time.
* The Taoliyuan Canteen covers an area of 9,696 m², has four floors (including one basement level), and began formal food service on August 6, 2004.
* The Qingfenyuan Canteen began construction in March 1957, originally named the “Seventh Canteen”. The name “Qingfen” derives from the stone inscription “清芬挺秀、华夏增辉”. The canteen was renamed to “Qingfenyuan” in December 2006, with the intention of inspiring future generations to strive ceaselessly. The new Qingfenyuan was built on the site of the old Qingfenyuan and Qing Qing fast-food area, and officially opened for dining at the end of November 2015. It is located southeast of the intersection of Xuetang Road and Zhishan Road, a route that students pass regularly between classes. Qingfenyuan has four floors, a usable area of approximately 8,600 m², and can accommodate over 1,900 people dining simultaneously.
* The Tīngtaoyuan Canteen was completed in July 1981, originally called the “Tenth Canteen”. It is located at the junction of Xuetang Road and Zhishan Road, covers more than 2,000 m², and can accommodate over 1,000 people dining at one time. It sits east of the Wan quan River; to its west are a hundred willow trees, and to the southwest a gently winding lawn and clusters of bamboo. When a breeze stirs, teachers and students dining here can sit and watch the rippling water and listen to the rustling pines — hence in 2006 it was renamed “Tīngtaoyuan”. Tīngtaoyuan has two levels.
* The Rongyuan Canteen was established on January 8, 2013, located within the School of Finance at Wudaokou of Tsinghua University, with a building area of 1,286 m², and is the only canteen within the School of Finance. Rongyuan has two floors.
* The Dingxiangyuan Canteen, originally known as the “Fourteenth Canteen”, was completed in January 1987, has a usable area of 1,300 m², and can accommodate over 580 people dining at the same time. Its name derives from “white lilac” (one of Tsinghua’s campus flowers), symbolizing that though its area is modest, its food is as pure, elegant and fragrant as lilac flowers.
* The Wenxinyuan Canteen is located at the southwest corner of the Guanchouyuan Canteen, and started use in 2001. It provides halal cuisine; the environment is elegant and clean, and it can accommodate over 100 people dining at the same time.
* The Shuangqingyuan Canteen began trial operations on August 16, 2021, located around the off-campus Shuangqing Apartments, facilitating daily meals for nearby students and faculty.<ref>{{Cite web |title=学生食堂-饮食服务中心 |url=https://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/ysfwzx/info/1004/1007.htm |access-date=2025-11-06 |website=www.tsinghua.edu.cn}}</ref>

'''Staff Canteens'''

* Tsinghua University’s Guanchouyuan Canteen (originally known as “Tsinghua University Dining Plaza”) is located on the north side of the West-Grand Sports Field, with a building area of 13,250 m², spread over three floors, and can seat approximately 3,000 diners simultaneously. It is a comprehensive large canteen integrating full-service Chinese meals, Western cuisine, and flavour-specialty snacks. According to research, in 1707 the Emperor Kangxi’s third son built the Xichun Garden (now the Gong-zi-Ting), within which there were 150 mu of fertile fields; the Qianlong Emperor built the Guanchou Building by the fields and repeatedly composed poems praising agricultural labour. Today Guanchouyuan stands beside the former imperial farmlands of over two centuries ago, its name meant to remind Tsinghua’s faculty and students not to forget the hardships of tilling and the labours of the farmers.
* The Teachers’ Restaurant is located on the third floor of Qingfenyuan Canteen; it officially opened on March 21, 2016, and can accommodate around 400 diners at the same time. The restaurant is tastefully decorated and pleasantly appointed, with attentive service, designed to provide the faculty a comfortable and delightful space for academic exchange.
* The Zhilanyuan Dining Hall is located northeast of the Zijing Apartments, with a building area of 2,500 m², provides halal meals, has two floors, and can serve approximately 800 diners simultaneously.<ref>{{Cite web |title=教工餐厅-饮食服务中心 |url=https://www.tsinghua.edu.cn/ysfwzx/info/1004/1008.htm |access-date=2025-11-06 |website=www.tsinghua.edu.cn}}</ref>
