China University of Political Science and Law

China University of Political Science and Law (CUPL) is located in Beijing, the capital of China, with two campuses: Haidian Xueyuan Road and Changping Fuxue Road. Directly under the Ministry of Education, it is a national Double First-Class university and a key institution under the 211 Project, widely recognized as the 'highest institution of legal education in China.' Its predecessor, the Beijing College of Political Science and Law, was founded in 1952 through the merger of departments from Peking University, Tsinghua University, Yenching University, and Fu Jen Catholic University, and it was restructured into its current form in 1983.

As a member of the Global Law Schools Alliance, the Eurasian Pacific Uninet, and other international networks, CUPL fosters a strong international atmosphere, with exchange programs and joint training initiatives with top law schools worldwide.

CUPL's flagship discipline is law, which received an A+ rating in the Ministry of Education's discipline evaluation and is a national first-class key discipline, firmly ranking first in legal education in China. The university offers 42 doctoral programs, 77 master's programs, and 15 professional master's programs, covering all sub-disciplines of law.

Known as the 'cradle of Chinese legal professionals,' CUPL has produced a vast number of judges, prosecutors, lawyers, and legislative experts, with alumni serving in judicial institutions across China and international organizations.

CUPL boasts a highly qualified faculty of 1,028 full-time teachers, 90% of whom hold doctoral degrees, including several Changjiang Scholars, national teaching masters, and distinguished young jurists. The curriculum emphasizes the integration of theory and practice, featuring courses like moot court, legal clinics, and international arbitration simulations, along with internship partnerships with the Supreme People's Court and Supreme People's Procuratorate.

Research is supported by platforms such as the National Human Rights Education and Training Base and key research institutes of humanities and social sciences, undertaking numerous major national projects. The university also hosts international cooperation institutions like the China-EU School of Law and the China-US School of Law, offering English-taught LL.M.

CUPL has two campuses: the Haidian Xueyuan Road campus is located in Beijing's university district, near top universities, with convenient transportation and a vibrant academic atmosphere; the Changping Fuxue Road campus features a beautiful environment, modern facilities, including a large library, sports venues, and comfortable dormitories.

The campuses are green and well-equipped with dining halls, cafes, and sports areas. As a global metropolis, Beijing offers abundant internship, employment, and cultural experiences. Commuting between the two campuses is easy, allowing students to enjoy the capital's premium resources.
