Nankai University was established in 1919 as the private Nankai School by Yan Xiu and Zhang Boling. During the Second Sino-Japanese War from 1937 to 1945, Nankai University, Peking University and Tsinghua University merged and formed the National Changsha Provisional University, which later moved to Kunming and was renamed the National Southwestern Associated University (西南联大). On December 25, 2000, the State Ministry of Education signed an agreement with Tianjin Municipal Government to jointly establish and develop Nankai University.
The university was founded as a private institution in 1919.[8] Nankai's scale was relatively small at its inception partly because it received no funding from the government but instead was funded by foreign charitable funds and local entrepreneurs, with only 3 departments (liberal arts, science, and business) and 96 students.[9] It was noted particularly for its courses which were taught in English using foreign curricula and textbooks.[10][citation needed]
The well-known Nankai Institute of Economics was established in 1927 and soon became one of the most prominent[11] in China being the first non-foreign entity to calculate a Chinese Consumer Price Index.[12]
By 1937, Nankai had expanded into a university of 3 colleges, 13 departments, and 2 research institutes, with 429 students and 110 faculty and staff members.[9]
It was once nicknamed "The North Star of Higher Learning".[13]
1937–1949
In July 1937, during the Sino-Japanese War, Nankai campus was severely damaged by Japanese bombings.[14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] About two-thirds of Nankai's school buildings including its library were destroyed by the Japanese Imperial Army. A number of the school's artifacts, including the university bell,[22][23][24] were looted and remain in Japanese museums till this day.[citation needed]
After the establishment of the People's Republic of China, Nankai was readjusted and became a comprehensive university with emphasis on the arts and sciences, with 14 departments and 3 professional specialties in total.[9]
In February 1978, the State Council decided to resume and set up national key colleges, Nankai University is identified as the first national key college.[31]
After 1980, Nankai added a number of new specialties and institutes. In arts, applied specialties on financing were set up and the School of Economics was reopened in 1983, while in Sciences, interdisciplinary, marginal and high and new technological specialties were added.[citation needed]
Nankai was among the first universities in China to open its doors for students from America in the 1980s.[32] In 1989, the university was ordered by the Tianjin public security bureau to send two Americans back home, following rising political tensions over pro-democracy demonstrations.[33]
By the late 1980s, Nankai University had grown to be a comprehensive university embracing Humanities, Natural Sciences, Applied Sciences, Life Sciences, Managements and Art.[citation needed]
In 1994, Tianjin Foreign Trade College was merged to Nankai university. In 1999, under the combined efforts of Nankai and TEDA, TEDA College was set up.[citation needed] In 2000, the State Ministry of Education signed an agreement with Tianjin Municipal Government on jointly establishing and developing Nankai University. Experimental cooperation between Nankai University and Tianjin University was initiated on the principle of independent school-running and close cooperation.[citation needed] In 2002, under the cooperative efforts of Nankai, Government of Shenzhen and UC Berkeley, the Financial Engineering College was established in Shenzhen.[citation needed]
In May 2006, Nankai's president Rao Zihe tendered 15 of the 21 university's college dean positions, restaffing key positions in an effort to further improve the university's educational programs.[34]
In February 2015, following Chinese media reports and statements from inside the Chinese Communist Party that universities would have to "be cleansed of liberal Western textbooks and other ideological heresies", Nankai's president Gong Ke publicly stated: "Recently I've read people on the Internet saying that the ranks of academics must be cleansed, purified and rectified. I can't agree with this. This was the mentality of 1957 or 1966." and "We cannot re-enact this history of "leftist" errors against intellectuals."[35][36]
