During each period in history, Tsinghua has been practical, truth-seeking, and innovative, adhering to the school motto of “Self-Discipline and Social Commitment.“ Over 110 years, Tsinghua has nurtured outstanding scholars, entrepreneurs, and statesmen who have made significant contributions to the development of the country.
