Yantai University (YTU), established in 1984, is one of the key provincial comprehensive universities of Shandong Province. It scrupulously abides by the school’s motto of "Be trustworthy, be down-to-earth, be fond of learning, and practice earnestly." Two of the most renowned institutions of higher education in China, Peking University and Tsinghua Unviersity, were instrumental in the creation of YTU, and the fine traditions of these two universities have been carried forward over the past twenty five years.

YTU puts great emphasis on innovative teaching and learning and has a well developed set of academic disciplines covering the breadth of higher education. Many departments have outstanding features distinguishing itself from similar disciplines at other universities. 

Since being founded, YTU has attached great importance to international exchange and cooperation, and is one of the first groups of universities permitted by government to recruit foreign educational experts and receive international students.

YTU has established partnerships with over seventy universities and institutions around the world, including cooperative programs with Korea and Norway. Currently, it receives approximately six hundred international students every year.

YTU has become an influential comprehensive university.
