Sun Yet-Sen University is a Project 985 university, and having studied at one previously (Zhejiang University), I felt the quality of education should be top notch. The reason I did not simply go back to ZJU was because I felt I should go to another institution to pursue my masters, and the TianHe 2 being in Sun Yet-Sen university drew me to it.
