1906, with the aim of "macro-teaching and caring for overseas Chinese", the Qing government set up a school in Nanjing, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, and Jinan School, the first national institution for overseas Chinese in China, was born. The word "Jin 'an" comes from Shangshu Gong Yu: "The east is gradually in the sea, the west is in quicksand, and the south is combined, which teaches the world." It means that the excellent culture of the Chinese nation will spread in five continents and four seas. In the 20th century, the fate of Jinan University, the country and the nation was ups and downs. Although it has experienced ups and downs, the string songs have never stopped. Over the past century, it has trained nearly 200,000 talents at home and abroad, and talents are all over the world. "Jinan", a name with far-reaching implications, is becoming more and more famous at home and abroad.

Long years, a snap of your fingers. Wei Jinan, renew your appearance. Today, Jinan is a national key university of "2 1 1 project". The school has a complete range of disciplines, a strong faculty and obvious characteristics of internationalization, modernization and integration. It attracts students at home and abroad. Over the past 20 years since the reform and opening up, the school has sent more than 20,000 outstanding graduates overseas, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. In 2006, there were more than 30,000 students, including overseas, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan students 10270, from 77 countries and regions on five continents, ranking first among universities in China. There are 868 overseas graduate students, accounting for 1/4 of the total number of overseas and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan graduate students in Chinese universities, and it is worthy of being called "the highest institution for overseas Chinese".
