The College of Education, referred to as the College of Education for short, refers to the secondary college with the nature of normal education set up in adult undergraduate colleges or ordinary colleges and universities. In recent years, most of the education colleges in all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government have begun to be restructured into normal colleges or merged with other institutions to become ordinary institutions of higher learning, and started to recruit undergraduates.
