The Ministry of education law as a first level discipline assessment of the latest rankings are based on a more local law school, has been among the forefront of. Law education resources are too concentrated in a few places and even monopoly situation is changing, law school competition in the future may be more only comparative advantage, and no longer reflects the comprehensive advantages. And all of this happens, and around the law school funding system, multiple financing law listed as priority discipline school leap forward development of outstanding talents of law, a new round of flow, doctoral and doctoral level authorized the increase and so on, are closely related.

However, with the profound accumulation of the National People's Congress, law and the old school of law is still the top three, even Tsinghua law school rapidly grow so become an independent school. Undoubtedly, the emerging elite law schools on how to form the comparative advantage at the same time, should not disregard the remarkable development footprint law center. So, what to learn what a top law school, has become a very important problem.

As the National People's Congress and the law of the big boss, still called the development Chinese law system benchmarking, uniting feature is the basis of law and application of law and equal, in the construction of key disciplines and promote the coordinated development of the whole national base. However, under the scrutiny, they still formed its unique mode of running a school.

Be sure, Chinese law school development cannot meet the urgent needs of society, the root cause lies in the "excess" and "shortage" of dislocation. The surplus is intermediate, the low-end products, and to participate in the administration of state decided to internal and external policy laws still lack of high-end talent, obvious example is the economic legislation, play the leading role of the economist and few jurists, well versed in foreign affairs to come from outside the domain of the "China" and "little domestic foreign". In view of this, the NPC Law School is famous "new China law known as" the cradle of, also have consciousness in the increase and support University prestige and reputation of this university to rely on intangible assets, the school has launched nearly ten professors on the highest podium Republic, served as the Political Bureau, the Secretariat of the Central Committee and the Standing Committee of the NPC, collective learning there are more than fifty people, and teachers in the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council, the Ministry of education discipline appraisal group committee of university teaching guidance and Chinese law occupies an important position, national academic community, precision formed to China law development "think tank"; and training in international talent, then make full use of the platform and more than 60 countries near the famous university established the pattern of exchanges and cooperation, in encouraging young teachers in high frequency visit at the same time, it is a lot of countries and area every year "organic" sending students to exchange learning different languages, produced a considerable number of professionals in foreign-related legal international competitiveness has unique and not easily alternative. Of course, the NPC Law School reputation behind carrying far more than this, for example, in scientific research on more investment, especially the "not capped" books and the case of the largest investment, which has a national collection of the most abundant law professional library and the National University cases even, its integrated database; some incentive, incentive policy is also present a rare rigid, like almost harsh inter annual research assessment, so that even if is a professor there are transfer, reduce the possibility of out of sequence, etc.. Perhaps it is the collection and refine these related elements, jointly set up a seat at the top domestic law education boundary.

If not completely copy's experience, method is another way, the whole teaching combined with the advantages of Institute of political science and law, in ensuring the premise of academic space, which faces in view of law education alienation serious credibility crisis, the more advanced legal practice teaching mode gradually turned to the distinctive clinical education, the education affairs. As legal practice education development priorities, technical education different from the usual, intended to foster spiritual and ethical public service, rather than through legal education seeking a stable and well paid job; improvement or refresh setting and teaching practices of various courses, strengthen the practical foundation courses and legal development subjects in group settings, forming a "professional groove" and different from those of general professional; rely more on professional quality education in University of politics and law "complete", the formation of deep knowledge and keen social insight, to go beyond the legal artisans pure technical; and let the students with one or two foreign languages, provide high quality international exchanges of experience, and then in the Chinese overall is still in developing countries in a long time, and always maintain a leading competitive. By shaping the multi dimension, was aimed at the cultivation of noble integrity, full of profound knowledge, skilled in education and specialization of legal technology, good to think creatively and with the view of the world first-class applied legal elite.

Then, an academic freedom in the world to hear of Peking University Law School, and what can we tell? Lift the salient points, the key is to maintain the academic autonomy and leading academic direction, on this basis, the formation of research interest problem centered, and consciously promote the integration and support interdisciplinary. For example, in the fight for the resources and the scientific research as the number required action by the environment, the substantive evaluation output and academic achievements of Peking University Law School One principle runs through it all. to adhere to high quality, emphasize the academic achievement of lapping original, thorough and meticulous, not vicarious history mode "believed in speaking" and "sublime words with deep meaning", or simply "emancipating the mind" and cater to the mainstream of political consciousness. Over the past six years, Peking University School of law, average every teacher in the core journals published only one article, but did not shake the strong academic influence, is the best footnote.

In addition, as a comprehensive university, Engineering University School of law is the new model of "Tsinghua law phenomenon" outshines others, also quite commendable. The ultra conventional development depends on the "special policy", this is the way to learn the characteristics of Tsinghua University, law school had begun to perhaps emerging also has more realistic significance. The international school for example, legal exchange between China and foreign countries have long has always been to Chinese legal person to developed countries to learn the main, communication has been a one-way, and Tsinghua law school variable one-way to two-way interaction, opened the first domestic large-scale foreign students master China project. Not only opened Easy Access to apply for full fee paying students from developed countries in North America, Europe (including the law is, Harvard School), and the curriculum is not short of the research, but is equal to the Anglo American countries for master of laws required a year learning system China method, to obtain recognition of the China law degree. It is this unique international school, to have a solid legal background and high expectations of students, which in turn makes Tsinghua law school also active thinking and improve the teaching methods of traditional legal China, thereby greatly raise the level of teaching. The project has been through the three set, not only the students doubled, and regional origin is broadening, the University of Pennsylvania, Temple University, Boston University America has now admitted to have taken in Tsinghua this master class credits, admitted to repair Chinese method as a kind of American method, also can be an important choice. Undoubtedly, it is this very special international education policy, the Tsinghua law school can write China law education a thick and heavy in colours, also took a big step towards the world Chinese method.

The "sparrow anatomy", the most important is to reveal hidden for a top law school behind the development of the "soft power", with respect to all my so-called evaluation indices, an important part of the process of climbing the top may also complement each other.
