Xinjiang University of Political Science And Law

Xinjiang University of Political Science and Law (XUPL) is a public undergraduate university specializing in political science and law, located in Tumushuk City, Xinjiang, at the heart of the Silk Road Economic Belt. Administered by the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (XPCC), the university was established in 2021 through the merger of Shihezi University Science and Technology College and the Corps Police College, with roots tracing back to a labor reform cadre school founded in 1984.

As a member of the national 'Lige Alliance' of political and legal universities, the Silk Road University Alliance, and the Xinjiang International Legal Talent Training Alliance, XUPL actively participates in the Ministry of Education's 'Pairing Support for Western Higher Education' program, fostering collaborations with domestic and international institutions.

As the only undergraduate law-focused university in Xinjiang, XUPL holds a unique position in training legal talents for border regions. Its flagship programs include Law, Public Security, and Political Science, with Law recognized as a provincial first-class undergraduate program.

The university's close ties with local judicial and police systems provide students with hands-on practical training. Membership in the 'Lige Alliance' grants access to resources from top law schools across China, while the Silk Road University Alliance enables research on Central Asian legal systems, supporting the Belt and Road Initiative.

XUPL comprises 7 teaching units offering 34 undergraduate programs across law, management, engineering, and humanities. The faculty includes 456 full-time teachers, over 30% with senior titles, supplemented by visiting professors from partner universities under the national support program.

The curriculum emphasizes practical skills through mock courts, police training, and international legal practice courses. Students gain real-world experience at internship bases established with local courts, prosecutors' offices, and police stations.

Located in Tumushuk's new urban area, the campus features a green, modern environment with a blend of contemporary and traditional architecture. Facilities include smart classrooms, a mock court, a police training center, and a well-stocked library with digital resources.
