School of Eurasian

In 1912, the front body of Henan University, Henan Preparatory School for the Study in Europe and America, was founded on the former site of Gongyuan, the examination office of Qing Dynasty in the ancient city of Kaifeng, which at that time enjoyed the equal fame with Beijing Tsinghua College (the Tsinghua University now), and the Shanghai Nanyang High School (the Shanghai Jiaotong University now) as China’s biggest three training bases for students studying abroad. In 2007, under the permission of the government of Henan Province, the Henan University, with its brilliant history, inherited the spirit of running the school open, and established its institution running under Chinese-Foreign cooperation—the Eurasian International College.

The Eurasian International College is a new type of affiliated colleges, established in the aim of deepening the reform, opening wider to the outside world, and accelerating the internationalization of education.
