China's modern university system can be traced back to the late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), when the Imperial University of Peking, later renamed Peking University, was founded in 1898 with the aim of developing a Western university model.

China's higher education system has grown rapidly in the century that followed. Today, there are more than 2,000 universities and colleges across the country.

Much of that growth came in the 1900s, when a number of storied universities took up the historic mission of national rejuvenation and social advancement. They have since played an invaluable role in the country's social development, economic growth and scientific progress.

The Party School of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), also known as the Central Party School, was founded in 1933 in Ruijin, Jiangxi Province as the CPC Central Committee's Marxist-Communist School. It's the top school charged with the task of training senior and mid-ranking Chinese officials and an important bastion for the study and proliferation of Marxism, Mao Zedong Thought and socialism with Chinese characteristics. In the late 1970s, the Central Party School played a significant role in restoring pragmatism to the Party's ideology and paved the way for the economic development of contemporary China. The institution is now located in Beijing's Haidian District.
