Public universities

Directly supervised by the central government

The University of International Relations is a public university based in Beijing, under the Ministry of State Security. It was a National Key University. Its Hangzhou campus used to be Zhejiang Second Police College under the Ministry of State Security since 1983 before it was made the Hangzhou campus of the university in 1997. The campus has been training Tibetan students since 1983 and only recruits Tibetan students who are tested in Chinese in the National College Entrance Exam.[4][5][6]

Zhejiang University was selected into China's national plan to develop first-class universities, namely Project 211, Project 985 and Double First Class University Plan, in 1995, 1999 and 2017, respectively. It was also a National Key University. As a university in the first batch of Project 985 universities, Zhejiang University is a member of C9 League. In 2000, Zhejiang University was made under the direct supervision of the Ministry of Education. The party secretary and president of Zhejiang University are regarded as vice ministerial government officials, whose nomination and approval are made by the Central People's Government and the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party.[7] The university's Communist Party Committee and Commission for Discipline Inspection are under the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection respectively.[8]

Independent colleges

Independent colleges are the private sector of public universities, which offers for-profit degree education for those who are not admitted to public universities. They were first set up in Zhejiang as a business model since the 1990s, yet a national reform has aimed to transform them into vocational or private universities independent of their affiliated universities since 2019.[10] For example, Zhejiang University City College and Ningbo Institute of Technology, Zhejiang University were transformed into public universities,[11] with the latter renamed as NingboTech University. The reform led to students' protests in 2021, after which the government suspended the reform.[12] In Zhejiang, the reforms for Hangzhou Dianzi University Information Engineering School, Zhejiang Gongshang University Hangzhou College of Commerce, Zhijiang College of Zhejiang University of Technology had since been suspended.[13]
