Introduction:
Zhejiang University is located in east coastal city of Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang province,
which lies 180km south of China’s largest commercial center Shanghai. As one of the seven
ancient capital cities of China, Hangzhou has a history of over 2,200 years. The city is also a
world-famous tourist resort praised as ‘a paradise on earth’, boasting very favorable natural
conditions, with a mild climate, convenient transportation systems, picturesque scenery and rich
cultural heritage. In the 13th century, the Italian traveler Macro Polo admired Hangzhou as ‘the
most beautiful and splendid city in the world’.
Founded in 1897 as one of the earliest institutions of higher learning in China, Zhejiang University
is now a leading research university under the direct administration of China’s Ministry of
Education. Reputed as the ‘East Cambridge’ in history, Zhejiang University has always been
