Henan University

Henan University

Henan University (河南大学) is a public university in Kaifeng, Henan, China.

History

Founded in 1912, Henan University is one of the oldest universities in China. It was originally named the Preparatory School for Further Study in Europe and America. Afterwards it was renamed Zhongzhou University (1923), Henan Zhongshan University (1927), Henan Provincial University (1930), and Henan National University (1942).

By the end of the 1940s, it had developed into 6 schools: School of Art, School of Science, School of Law, School of Agriculture, School of Engineering and School of Medicine. It remains as an influential comprehensive university in China.

Due to the geographical factors, this university has been left behind by many peers, many of which had been catered to by Henan University during their initialization, as Kaifeng, former capital of Henan province where this university is located, has become a so-called "Deserting Noble". As a public university funded by government, it usually suffers insuffient financial support from local and central government.

The graduates from this university is not encouraged to admit their origin as this university never enjoyed the the reputation and prestigious as an influential educational institution. The depressed job market disappointed many graduates as they are not well prepared to face the challenges.

Current situation is not optimistic as no one believes this university will restore its dignity and reputation in the education community of mainland China.
