Hainan Tropical Ocean University (HTOU), formerly Qiongzhou University, is a provincial state-owned university in Hainan, China.[2][3]

History[]

HTOU was previously named Qiongzhou University and had a single campus in Wuzhishan in the middle of Hainan island. It then opened a second campus in Sanya. At that time, its name changed from Qiongzhou University.[4]

HTOU is the result of a number of schools merging over time. It was formed from the Guangdong Province's school named Hainan Li and Miao Autonomous Region Normal School established in 1954 and by Hainan Li and Miao Autonomous Prefecture Teachers’ College which was established in 1958. Further mergers and splits and name changes were made. Then, in 1993, it became the Qiongzhou College, a post-secondary education school, after a merger between Hainan Tongza Normal Post-secondary College and Hainan Tongza College of Education. In 2006, after further development and construction, it was renamed Qiongzhou University teaching undergraduate education. Hainan Normal School for Nationalities was merged into Qiongzhou University in 2006. In 2008, the main campus was established in Sanya. In September 2015, its became Hainan Tropical Ocean University.[4]
