From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chengde Medical College (Chinese: 承德医学院; pinyin: Chéngdé Yīxuéyuàn) is a university in Hebei, China under the provincial government. Established in 1945, it adopted its current name in 1982.
The university's new campus was recently completed on the outskirts of downtown Chengde. It currently enrolls about 6000 students, the majority of which are female. Chengde Medical College is best known for its nursing program, and offers classes in both English and Chinese.
Formerly for undergraduates only, the university received authorization to grant master's degrees in 2003. In addition to nursing, many other programs are offered, including psychology, biomedical engineering, and traditional Chinese medicine.
Chengde Medical College began recruiting foreign students in 2006. A number of students from outside China now attend the school, most coming from Pakistan.
