National Tsing Hua University () is a university in Hsinchu City , Taiwan Province , Republic Of China . It is one of the most prestigious universities in Taiwan.

After the Chinese Civil War , Tsinghua University was divided into Tsinghua University in Beijing and '''National Tsing Hua Institute of Nuclear Technology''' recreated in 1955 in Hsinchu , Taiwan , which later became '''National Tsing Hua University'''. The newly established People's Republic Of China removed all "National" appellations for all universities in mainland China to reflect the fact that all institutions under its jurisdiction would be public, while the university re-established in Taiwan kept its old name.

The two Tsinghua Universities are not affiliated with each other, but both claim to be successors of the original Tsinghua University. Because of these dispute, both universities claimed to be the rightful recipient of the funds from the Boxer Rebellion indemnity that was used to start Tsinghua University. This indemnity was awarded to the university in Taiwan.
