Why do you think you're right?

Today, we see Chinese universities and institutions growing their human capacity by sending the best students abroad for education, mostly to the United States. The rate of well-educated Chinese workers, especially in STEM fields, has increased.


On the other hand, China has been studying how top US universities like Harvard, MIT, and Stanford are run and, again, with an eye to STEM fields. This in my view gives China a key advantage: they are looking at what makes these top US institutions great in terms of the outcomes most-desired for China, mostly STEM field education, and not looking at things like the fabled rock climbing walls and dorms that seem like four-star hotels often discussed on a student marketing level in the States. Nor things like adding diversity majors such as Gender Studies seen as important to balance out diversity on campus yet attracting relatively few students and not catering in general to high-growth job markets.

I foresee 20-25 Chinese universities listed in the QS World university ranking by 2023.
