ABOUT XJTLU
In 2006 Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU) was created by the
University of Liverpool and Xi’an Jiaotong University – a top ten
university in China. Offering a unique international education

now has over 25,000 enrolled students in both Suzhou and Liverpool in
the UK, with plans to grow to about 28,000 students by 2025. There are

With a focus on innovative learning and teaching, and research, XJTLU
