Strength in Discipline
Hangzhou Normal University started as Zhejiang Official Dual-Level Normal School in 1908. It was renamed Zhejiang Provincial First Normal School in 1913. In the turbulent early 20th century, the School was open to new ideas and emerged as a pioneer of the development of democracy and modern science in China. In 1978, Hangzhou Teachers College was formed on the basis of Hangzhou Normal School. At the turn of the 21st century, a few smaller institutions were successively integrated into Hangzhou Teachers College. 2007 marked the birth of the new Hangzhou Teachers College, officially today’s Hangzhou Normal University (HZNU).
With 24 schools, and 2 affiliated hospitals, Hangzhou Normal University consists of three campuses, namely, Cangqian Campus, Xiasha Campus and Yuhuangshan Campus, covering a total area of about 190 hectares. It has 2614 staff members and more than 31,000 full-time students, including more than 24,000 undergraduates, around 6,000 graduate students, near 90 doctoral students and about 500 international students. With 13 of its disciplines in the top 1% of international ESI disciplines, HZNU is now among China’s top 100 by ESI ranking. Liberal arts and sciences are among the strong disciplines.
HZNU keeps a close eye on the Belt and Road Initiative and follows closely what is going on globally. Its friendly ties have been established with over 70 renowned universities around the world, confirming its belief that openness and inclusiveness should be the tone for international exchanges. It is among the first to be accredited for international education by China Education Association for International Exchange, co-runs a center for Chinese language education and cooperation in partnership with Middle Tennessee State University in the United States, a Joint Institute with Kharkiv National University in Ukraine and a Joint Program at Master Level with the University of Canberra in Australia.
