Abstract: The birth of a university relies heavily on a well-developed city in which it is located. And the university-city relationship is vividly reflected in the interaction between the culture of the university and the culture of the city. The interaction between collegiate culture and urban culture lies in the mutual promotion and conflict between them. From the comparison between domestic and overseas collegiate culture and urban culture， this paper reveals the differences in the interaction mode and interaction content between Chinese and foreign collegiate culture and urban culture， and the consistency in interaction subject and interaction value. On this basis with the experience drawn from foreign countries， a new situation in the interaction between collegiate culture and urban culture will be constructed from the aspects of cultivating collegiate culture with cultural personality and cultural characteristics， creating urban culture with unique taste and unique charm， and deepening the interaction and exchange between collegiate culture and urban culture.

Key words: collegiate culture, urban culture, culture interaction
