footnotes =The Jiujiang University (Chinese: 九江学院;
Pinyin : Jiǔjiāng Xuéyuàn) is a minor college inJiujiang , northernJiangxi Province inChina .History
In October 1980, the 10th military meeting of the Central Military Committee eliminated the department of enterprise administration, a rear-service school of the
People's Liberation Army , and replaced it with a cadre school for enterprise. On September 21, 1981, the PLA Enterprise Cadre School was established.In September 1982, the school began its first training classes. At the beginning of 1983, the
Jiangxi provincial government brought the enrollment plan of the school into line with the state plan.In March 1994, the National Education Committee approved the establishment of the Jiujiang Financial and Economic College, the added name Military Supplies Finance and Economics College of the PLA added in April of the same year. The two names have since been used in parallel.
The Jiujiang Financial and Economic College was given a green light to integrate with several other colleges in
Jiujiang under the name Jiujiang Institute in December 2001. Final approval for the merger was finally achieved in May 2004 with all staffing issues decided and the Institute fully accredited to issue bachelor's degrees just in time for the first trial degree programs to graduate.Courses of Study

LawLeadership
As of 2006, the leadership of the college has rested in the following hands:
*Gan Xiaoqing (甘筱青), president and vice-secretary of the CPC Central Committee
*Chen Mianshui (陈绵水), secretary of the CPC Central Committee
*Ouyang Maorong (欧阳毛荣), vice-secretary of the CPC Central Committee
*Zhao Wenjie (赵文杰), vice-president
*Wu Taoe (吴桃娥), vice-presidentAliases
The Jiujiang Financial and Economic College is properly known as Jiujiang Institute (九江学院). It often refers to itself as Jiujiang University (would be "九江大学" in Chinese) "in English only" as a result of some confusion surrounding differences in educational instite organization between China and English-speaking countries. The "Institute" level is a level in between a trade school and a full-fledged university which doesn't have an equivalent in most western countries. As a result there can be confusion when the name "Jiujiang Institute" is used and it is deemed simpler to use "Jiujiang University" instead. You can find this behavior in all 学院-level institutions in China.
