Russian Higher Education in China
Khisamutdinov, A. A.
Russian Education & Society, v58 n7-8 p471-490 2016
In the first half of the twentieth century, Russian emigrants in China established a network of higher education institutions based on the prerevolutionary Russian educational system. By referring to memoirs and publications in the periodical press, the author traces the history of the most significant educational establishments: Harbin School of Law, Harbin Polytechnic Institute, State Higher Teacher Training Institute, and Institute of Oriental and Commercial Studies. These institutions also played a role in forming the Chinese intelligentsia, with Russian faculty successfully training future engineers, lawyers, Orientalist scholars, teachers, theologians, and musicians.
