Why is Hebei University of Technology in Tianjin?
Because this university is jointly established by Tianjin, Hebei Province and the Ministry of Education. Hearing the name of Hebei University of Technology, many people's first reaction must be the university in Hebei Province, but in fact Hebei University of Technology is in Tianjin.

Some people say that Tianjin used to belong to Hebei province, but after Tianjin became a municipality directly under the central government, it was too expensive for Hebei University of Technology to go, so it had to stay in Tianjin. However, it was under the jurisdiction of Hebei Province at that time, and later it was renamed Hebei University of Technology and became a university jointly established by Hebei Province, Tianjin and the Ministry of Education. So far, it is the Hebei University of Technology that we see now.
