01 Why DKU? I clearly remember the first time I came to DKU to attend the campus day. I attended an open class that combined environmental studies and art. That class made me realized that learning could be so interesting and interdisciplinary. I was completely attracted by DKU’s liberal arts education because it allowed me […]

01 Why DKU? DKU has shown me endless possibilities. In the high school, I am a student and only a student. I have lived as a “student” for 18 years and have never seriously thought about who I am and who I can become. Until I learned about DKU’s educational philosophy, I found that this […]

01 Why DKU? In the last year of high school, my teacher gave a task: choose a university of our choice. DKU, which is just across the street from my high school, naturally became an option worth considering. At first, I was hesitant about whether DKU was the best choice because I grew up in […]

01 Why DKU? The time and freedom given by Duke Kunshan University (DKU) to explore a wide range of majors attracted me. For me, who just graduated from high school, it is still a confusing topic to decide what field and career I want to pursue in the future. Many times, reality is very different […]

01 Why DKU? I chose DKU for the following three reasons: First, the liberal arts education, which gave me enough time to explore the major I wanted to study in depth and other interests during my freshman and sophomore years, so as to acquire comprehensive knowledge and skills. Second, the pleasant campus environment and advanced […]

01 Why DKU? DKU’s multicultural and interdisciplinary learning and living environment attracted me very much. Here, I can explore different academic fields more thoroughly and even subversively; here, I don’t have to choose an undergraduate major immediately after graduating from high school but can better tap my potential and express my personality. More importantly, students, […]

01 Why DKU? When I was in high school, I coincidently saw the option of “Take a virtual tour” on the DKU website and the photos of students from different countries walking freely on the campus. Then, I saw the news of DKU’s summer campus open day and decided to sign up for a visit. […]

01 Why DKU? I was born and raised in Kunshan. When I learned that an international university had settled in the city where I grew up, I was full of curiosity and yearning for DKU. Choosing DKU means that I can enjoy the educational resources and academic atmosphere comparable to those of top international universities […]

01 Why DKU? When I was in high school, I always liked to use the process of elimination when doing questions, and the same is true for my future life planning. I only knew what I didn’t want and couldn’t choose, but I was confused about what I wanted. After learning about the liberal arts […]

01 Why DKU? As a third-year undergraduate student at Duke Kunshan University (DKU), I initially chose DKU considering both undergraduate and postgraduate studies. DKU is a rising star in the field of higher education, and being able to be one of its builders can not only exercise my abilities in all aspects, but also help […]

01 Why DKU? I think there are two reasons. One is the liberal arts education. Duke Kunshan University focuses on cultivating students’ innovative thinking and interdisciplinary abilities. The school’s curriculum design is flexible, encouraging students to choose courses across majors and develop a diversified knowledge system. DKU also provides students with abundant practical opportunities and […]

01 Why DKU? Looking back on my high school years, I think I was a bit out of place in the exam-oriented education system. I was confused for a long time, not understanding the meaning of going to school and why I was always passively accepting knowledge. I remember that in my senior year of […]
