Duke Kunshan University is a place for learning, living and growing, in a setting that encourages the pursuit of knowledge within and beyond the classroom. The 200-acre campus site features state-of-the-art classroom and meeting facilities, library resources, student and faculty housing and dining space, and recreational facilities. Multi-purpose meeting spaces, breakout rooms, and study areas allow students to work individually or in groups to review course material, complete assignments, and participate in the vibrant, intellectual life of the University.
Designed by the internationally renowned architect, Gensler, the campus seeks to be a model of sustainable development, reflective of the natural and cultural context of the Jiangnan region.
Native wetlands: The 201-acre site has a high-water table, so designers elected to preserve 40 acres as community gardens—much in the way that Duke’s original campus in Durham is carefully nested into a forest. As the Durham campus is noted for its Sarah P. Duke Gardens, the Kunshan campus highlights its regional geography by featuring landscaped gardens, wetlands and waterways.
Energy efficiency: The campus design’s use of daylight, solar shading, passive cooling, and natural flood control is informed by centuries of experience dealing with the opportunities and challenges of Kunshan’s climate and terrain.
A walkable campus: Roadways are on the perimeter to create a pedestrian-friendly central campus with walking paths and bridges connecting the buildings to one another.
Regional connections: Kunshan’s location between Shanghai and Suzhou allows easy access to these major metropolitan centers by highways and high-speed railway.
Duke Kunshan features generous spaces for dining, social events, recreation and relaxation, all in a serene setting just a short distance from both Suzhou and Shanghai.
The Office of Student Life supports the intellectual, social, cultural, and physical development of students. Our programs and services enhance and complement the Duke Kunshan academic experience by providing opportunities for students to explore interests beyond the classroom. These opportunities include psychological counseling, health services, physical recreation, student leadership, and a variety of cultural activities such as excursions and events.
We help students strengthen and develop successful personal and academic lives through a range of integrated support services, open and professional advising, student outreach programs, organized co-curricular activities, and engagement with the Duke Kunshan and surrounding local communities.
