--FILE--View of the west gate of Tsinghua University in Beijing, China, 15 May 2010. Chinese universities have proven their merit, according to thev2016 QS World University Rankings in which China's best performer, Tsinghua University, jumped from a steady three years in the low 40's to become the 25th best university worldwide. The outcome of this study also saw Peking University in Beijing recover from 57th place to 41st place since last year. As the 25th best university in the world, Tsinghua placed ahead of UC Berkeley, Northwestern University and the University of Michigan just to name a few. In a global comparison by subject, Tsinghua also holds top ten rankings in architecture, civil engineering and material science. Recent scientific achievements in China, such as pig-to-human cornea transplants, suggest the country won't be falling out of the top ten any time soon.
