The university has formed its own special education features and become a comprehensive university with all kinds of subjects, sufficient teaching resources, and wide international influence.

Therefore, it forms a romantic and quiet atmosphere and there is a saying that goes, "Xiamen University is the heaven for couples". Most of the old buildings in the university were built by Tan Kah Kee's son-in-law. It has rich characteristics because of the dry wall and glazed roof.
