National Research University Moscow to be up and running in Hainan by September 2025

The top Russian technical university campus in Hainan Island will focus on aviation and aerospace

A major Russian technical university will start building its 55-hectare (137-acre) Hainan campus in Wenchang County later this year as the Hainan free-trade port opens its door to foreign institutions.

The new National Research University Moscow Power Engineering Institute (MPEI) campus will specialise in “aviation and aerospace teaching and research”, according to SCMP.com

Work on the main building will begin in September, as project details were firmed up following Chinese President Xi Jinping’s trip to Russia.

Construction of the campus in Wenchang county – which hosts the Wenchang Satellite Launch Centre – is expected to be complete by June 2025, with undergraduate and postgraduate classes offered from that September.

Hainan is trying to boost its education sector by attracting prestigious foreign universities with a focus on science, technology, agriculture or medicine as Beijing aims to make Hainan Island a hub for renowned international schools by 2025.

Cao Xiankun, the Communist Party secretary for the provincial education department, told Hainan Daily last month that creating a “studying abroad experience” in Hainan would encourage the return of overseas “expenditure on education” and also attract international students from Southeast Asia.

The provincial education department is currently pursuing similar deals with Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences in Germany and École hôtelière de Lausanne, a hospitality management school in Switzerland.
