Duke Kunshan University is redefining what it means to be a global university. Students today need to be part of the international conversation, to graduate with the skills needed to find innovative solutions to tackle worldwide challenges.

The academic pedagogy at Duke Kunshan features interdisciplinary approaches, engagement with research and collaborative learning. Our award-winning faculty and high-tech campus all combine to create the ideal environment for an experiential education that teaches students the strategies they need to not only learn, but to lead.

Founded in 2013, the university is a partnership of Duke University in the United States, Wuhan University in China, and the fast-developing Chinese city of Kunshan, Jiangsu province, where its campus is located. Together they have created a dynamic institution that combines the academic strengths of East and West – truly the first of its kind.
