Two prestigious universities in China have moved up a world university ranking, which education experts said is a result of China's continuing efforts to improve higher education and make universities more attractive.
Chinese universities should collaborate more frequently with researchers from around the globe in conducting research and working on academic papers in order to strengthen their position within the global research community, a senior manager of an academic publishing company suggested.

"For universities, it is important that they work on their unique characteristics...No single institution can cover all programs. We need to determine the various types of universities that can focus on research, teaching and technical areas," said Li Yuanyuan, who is also a deputy of the National People's Congress.
