In the past, many universities were created by foreigners, such as Yenjing University , Fu Ren University, Qilu University , Zhijiang University , etc. However, not many have become 211 key universities, so the editor specifically talks about becoming 211 key universities created by foreign countries.
Harbin Institute of Technology , Russian founded
Harbin Institute of Technology, referred to as " Harbin Institute of Technology ", is a 211/985 university affiliated to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, one of the first 9 985 universities. However, few people probably know that Harbin Institute of Technology was founded by foreigners. Which country is it?
Harbin Institute of Technology was the predecessor of Harbin Sino-Russian Industrial School . It was founded in May 1920. At that time, there were two departments: railway construction and electrical mechanical engineering. The first three classes recruited a total of 103 students, and implemented the credit system . The school system lasted for four years, and all were taught in Russian . Russian?

Tongji University . The German founded
Tongji University is very famous and is the third strong school in Shanghai, second only to Fudan University and Shanghai Jiaotong University . The subject characteristics of Tongji University are civil engineering buildings. Now Tongji University is a national key university directly under the Ministry of Education 211/985 national key university . So who founded Tongji University?
Tongji University was the predecessor of the German Medical School founded by German doctor Erich Baolong in Shanghai in 1907; in 1908, the name of Tongji Dewen Medical School ; in 1908, the "Dewen Medical School" was renamed "Tongji Dewen Medical School". "Tongji" at that time means that Germans and Chinese people work together. The word "Tongji" comes from the homophonic meaning of German "Deutsch ( German )" in Shanghai dialect, meaning cooperation and mutual assistance. In 1912, it was collectively known as Tongji De Literature and Medical Engineering School, which was founded shortly afterwards; it was officially named Tongji University in 1923; it became the National Tongji University in 1927, and is one of the seven earliest national universities in China.
Tongji University originated from medicine. Unfortunately, Tongji University’s medical school moved to Wuhan to become Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. The current Tongji University Medical School is the original Shanghai Railway University Medical School. Its strength is relatively average, but the discipline has been improving.
Many people know that Tongji University was founded by Germans and it is worth it. Harbin Institute of Technology was founded by Russians, but many people think that Xiamen University was also founded by foreigners, but it was actually wrong.
Xiamen University was founded by patriotic overseas Chinese leader Chen Jiageng . It is the first university founded on Chinese modern education history . However, although most of Chen Jiageng really lives abroad, he has never given up his Chinese nationality. Therefore, Xiamen University was not founded by foreigners, but was founded by us Chinese.
In addition, many people think that Tsinghua University was founded in the United States, but it is actually wrong. Tsinghua University was founded in China, but the money was given by the Americans, and the money returned by Boxer Indemnity .
talked about two 985 universities founded by foreigners. The following are 211 universities founded by foreigners, and fewer people probably know about them.Let’s first talk about the famous national university - China University of Mining and Technology , which is one of the three famous "geo-mineral and oil" universities. However, when China University of Mining and Technology is different from China University of Petroleum and China University of Geosciences, China University of Mining and Technology was first founded by foreigners, while Geosciences and Petroleum University was founded by Chinese.

Suzhou University . Americans founded
. When it comes to Suzhou University, everyone knows that this is a provincial 211 university in Jiangsu Province. Generally, provincial 211 key universities are the best universities in their provinces, and they are also local universities originating from local areas. However, Suzhou University is an exception, because the predecessor of Suzhou University was Soviet University .
Soviet University is China's first western-made university. It was founded by the American Christian Supervisory Council in 1900. It was formerly the Boxi Academy, Gongxiang Academy and Shanghai Zhongxi Academy in Suzhou . Soochow University was the first to carry out professional education in law ( British, American and French ).
