The World First Class University and First Class Academic Discipline Construction (Chinese: 世界一流大学和一流学科建设), combined and are known as Double First Class (Chinese: 双一流; pinyin: shuāngyīliú),[1][2] is a tertiary education development initiative designed by the People's Republic of China government, in 2015,[3] which aims to comprehensively develop elite Chinese universities into world-class institutions through developing and strengthening their individual faculty departments by the end of 2050.[4][5] The universities included in this plan are called Double First Class Universities.

The Double First Class Universities are considered to be the most elite institutions of Chinese tertiary education, representing the top 5% of overall universities and colleges in Mainland China.

In September 2017, the full list of the universities and their disciplines of the Double First Class University Plan was published by the Ministry of Education of China, the Ministry of Finance of China and the National Development and Reform Commission of China. According to the list, 140 universities have been approved as ‘Double First Class Universities’ by the central government of China. The Double First Class University Plan underlines that driving the overall development of universities by building and strengthening their faculties and departments, and eventually developing the 140 listed elite universities into world-class universities by 2050. [4][6][1]

The Double First Class University Plan represents a new way of ranking universities in China.[5][6]In 2019, the Ministry of Education of China reconfirmed that both Project 211 and Project 985 had been abolished and substituted by the Double First Class University Plan.[7]

In December 2021, the 23rd meeting of Central Comprehensively Deepening Reforms Commission chaired by Chinese president XI Jinping deliberated and approved 'Some Suggestions on Further Promoting the Construction of World First Class Universities and First Class Disciplines'.[8]

By 2021, there are 3,012 universities and colleges in Mainland China,[9] and the 140 Double First Class universities accounted for less than 5% of the higher education institutions in China, representing the most elite part of higher education in this country.
