Capital Normal University (CNU; 首都师范大学) is a municipal public university in Beijing, China. It is affiliated with the City of Beijing and cp-funded by the Beijing Municipal People's Government and the Ministry of Education. The university is part of the Double First-Class Construction.[2]
The school was founded in 1954, formerly known as Beijing Normal College (北京师范学院), and its history of teaching could be traced back to Tongzhou Teachers School (通州师范学校), which was established in 1905. After 1960, some departments of North China Renmin University (华北人民大学), Beijing Workers and Peasants Normal College (北京工农师范学院), Beijing Art Normal College (北京艺术师范学院), and Beijing Normal Vocational School (北京师范专科学校) were successively merged into the school. In 1992, the Branch Campus of Beijing Normal University was merged into the school, which was then renamed Capital Normal University in the same year. After that, Beijing Union University Foreign Languages Normal School, Beijing Third Normal School, Tongzhou Normal School, and Beijing Preschool Normal School were successively merged into the university.[3]
