The name of university “Jinan” comes from “The Tribute of Yu” in the Book of History, which reads, “Reaching Eastward to the North and South, we shall spread the culture far and wide.”
The predecessor of the University was Jinan Academy, which was founded in 1906 by the Qing Government in Nanjing, and then moved to Shanghai. In the year 1927 it was renamed as “Jinan National University.” During the Sino-Japanese and Pacific Wars, the University operated from Jianyang, Fujian Province and returned to Shanghai in 1946. In August 1949 it was merged with Shanghai’s Fudan and Jiaotong Universities. Then, in 1958, it was reestablished in Guangzhou.
