Tsinghua University is known in simplified Chinese: 清华大学; in traditional Chinese: 清華大學; and in pinyin: Qīnghuá Dàxué. It's known informally as Qinghua, and is located in Beijing, China. It is home to more than 39,000 students and offers studies in Mathematical Sciences, Economics & Management, Journalism & Communication and Graduate studies.
Tsinghua University was founded in 1911, after the United States decided that their $30 million- plus indemnity payments received from China were excessive. The funding was used to educate Chinese students who wanted to study in the US. Tsinghua was a preparatory school for students who would travel to the Unites States.
