[edit]

Taiyuan Teachers College is located in Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi Province. The school was founded in March 1999.[2] It was reorganized from the former Teachers College of Shanxi University, Taiyuan Teachers College, and Shanxi Education College. Shanxi University Teachers College was established in 1988 as an undergraduate department of Shanxi University. It was established on the site of the former Chinese People's Liberation Army Naval Electronic Engineering College (Dayingpan, Yingze District, Taiyuan City). Taiyuan Normal College was established in 1958. Its history can be traced back to the Shanxi Provincial Government Normal School founded in 1905. The Government Normal School was renamed several times, and in 1953 it was renamed "Shanxi Provincial Taiyuan First Normal School". In August 1958, Taiyuan No. 1 Normal School merged with Taiyuan Advanced Training School and Taiyuan No. 2 Normal School to establish Taiyuan Teachers College, which was located in Houjia Lane (the former site of Shanxi University Hall) in Taiyuan City. [1] Shanxi Provincial Institute of Education was founded in 1929. The school site was initially located at the former National Normal University site, and later moved to West Lane, Huangling Road, Xiaodian District.

Taiyuan Normal University is an undergraduate normal college. In August 2013, Taiyuan Normal University was officially approved by the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China as a master's degree-granting unit, and three first-level disciplines, geography, mathematics, and Chinese language and literature, became master's degree-granting disciplines.
