'''The Education University of Hong Kong'''<ref name="EdUHK name">[http://www.news.gov.hk/en/categories/school_work/html/2016/01/20160126_153546.shtml University title approved], HK Government news, 26 January 2016</ref> ('''EdUHK''') is a public university in [[Ting Kok]], [[New Territories]], [[Hong Kong]].

The university was founded in 1994 as '''The Hong Kong Institute of Education'''. It is one of eight subsidised universities under the [[University Grants Committee (Hong Kong)|University Grants Committee of Hong Kong]] and the only one dedicated to teacher education.

==History and recent developments==
The history of The Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK) can be traced back to 1853. The [[St. Paul's College, Hong Kong|St. Paul's College]] introduced the first formalised programme of in-service teacher training. This was described in its Annual Report for 1994–1995.<ref name="ugc1">{{cite web|url=http://www.ugc.edu.hk/eng/doc/ugc/publication/report/report_integration_matters_e.pdf|title=Hong Kong Higher Education Integration Matters:A Report of the Institutional Integration Working Party of the University Grants Committee|access-date=31 December 2006|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070122020418/http://www.ugc.edu.hk/eng/doc/ugc/publication/report/report_integration_matters_e.pdf|archive-date=22 January 2007|url-status=dead}}</ref> On 25 April 1994, under the recommendation made by the Education Commission Report No 5, The Hong Kong Institute of Education (HKIEd) was formally established by the merger of:

*'''Northcote College of Education''', established in 1939<ref name="ugc1" /> and named after Sir [[Geoffry Northcote]], then [[Governor of Hong Kong]].
** The college was at what is now at the [[Bonham Road Government Primary School]] in [[Sai Ying Pun]] from 1941 to 1962, though this was interrupted by the [[Japanese occupation of Hong Kong]]. In 1962,<ref name=Comm>Commissioner for Heritage's Office, Development Bureau.

*'''Grantham College of Education''', established in 1951<ref name="ugc1" /> and named after Sir [[Alexander Grantham]], then Governor of Hong Kong. It was located at 42 [[Gascoigne Road]].
*'''Sir Robert Black College of Education''', established in 1960 and named after Sir [[Robert Brown Black]], then Governor of Hong Kong.<ref name="ugc1" />
*'''Hong Kong Technical Teachers’ College''', established in 1974.<ref name="ugc1" />
*'''Institute of Language in Education''', established in 1982 and previously under the supervision of the then [[Education Department (Hong Kong)|Education Department]].<ref name="ugc1" />

Established in 1994, HKIEd provides doctorate, master and undergraduate degrees, postgraduate diploma, certificates and a range of in-service programmes to around 7,000 pre-service students and serving teachers.

In October 1997, the Institute moved to its new campus in [[Tai Po]] near the [[Tai Po Industrial Estate]]. It has a Sports Centre at [[Pak Shek Kok]], Tai Po, as well as a Town Centre campus in [[Tseung Kwan O]].

In 2001, the HKIEd HSBC Early Childhood Learning Centre was established on the campus. The HKIEd Jockey Club Primary School was founded on the campus in the following year.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.eduhk.hk/main/about-us/history-and-campus/milestones/|title=The Education University of Hong Kong |access-date=2 June 2016}}</ref>

From 1 May 2004, the institute was granted [[accreditation|self-accrediting]] status in respect of its own teacher education programmes at degree-level and above.

In June 2009, the institute won extra annual funding of HK$22 million from the Hong Kong Government to provide 120 undergraduate degree places for three new undergraduate programs and 30 research postgraduate places for the 2009–2012 triennium.

In January 2010, the University Grants Committee endorsed the HKIEd's plans for Research Postgraduate programmes and undergraduate programs in three disciplines: "Humanities" (mainly Language), "Social Sciences", and "Creative Arts & Culture".

The approval is seen as a step closer for the institute to gaining its university title by becoming a fully-fledged university of education with a range of disciplines and strong research capacity.

HKIEd will launch its first batch of non-education programmes, namely the Bachelor of Arts in Language Studies and Bachelor of Social Sciences in Global and Environmental Studies in September 2010. Both programmes have already secured the support of the External Validation Panel of the Hong Kong Council for Accreditation of Academic and Vocational Qualifications.{{outdated-inline|date=December 2021}}

Preparations for the launching of the third Education-Plus programme, Bachelor of Arts in Creative Arts and Culture, in 2011–2012 are underway.{{outdated-inline|date=December 2021}}

The institute operates four institute-level research centres<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.eduhk.hk/main/research/research-centres/|title=The Education University of Hong Kong|access-date=2 June 2016}}</ref> had been set up to facilitate the growth of expertise in multi-disciplinary research.

On 11 September 2015 the University Grants Committee accepted the application by the Institute of Education to change its name to university, and on 26 January 2016 the adoption of the title "The Education University of Hong Kong" was approved. Accordingly, ''The Hong Kong Institute of Education (Amendment) Bill'' will be gazetted on 19 February 2016 and introduced into the Legislative Council on 2 March 2016.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Cheng|first1=Kris|title=Hong Kong Institute of Education set to be awarded 'university' title|url=https://www.hongkongfp.com/2015/09/13/hong-kong-institute-of-education-set-to-be-awarded-university-title/|work=[[Hong Kong Free Press]]|date=13 September 2015}}</ref><ref name="EdUHK name"/>

In January 2016, the institute was awarded self-accrediting status in three further programme areas, covered by its existing Programme Area Accreditation status: Chinese Studies, English Studies and Environmental Studies.<ref name="EdUHK name"/>

On 27 May 2016, the institute was formally renamed The Education University of Hong Kong in recognition of its "efforts and contributions over the years".<ref name="EdUHK name"/>

In September 2020, The Education University of Hong Kong, with the help of the [[Li Ka Shing Foundation]], partnered with [[Kneron]] to build Hong Kong's first AI educational system.<ref name=ref20>[https://www.thestandard.com.hk/breaking-news/section/4/155621/Li-Ka-shing-grants-HK%24170m-to-four-universities-for-bio-medical-and-AI-tech-projects Li Ka-shing grants HK$170m to four universities for bio-medical and AI tech projects]. 16 Sep 2020. ''[[The Standard (Hong Kong)|The Standard]]''. Accessed 24 November 2020.</ref>

In November 2023, the university announced that students would have to undergo mandatory national security education.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-11-06 |title=Hong Kong's Education University to make students take national security classes |url=https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/education/article/3240426/students-hong-kongs-education-university-will-need-take-compulsory-national-security-classes-learn |access-date=2023-11-07 |website=South China Morning Post |language=en}}</ref>

==Controversy over the proposed HKIEd-CUHK merger==
In January 2007, a public row broke out between the management and the government over the future of the institute. Battle lines were drawn between the Vice-Chancellor [[Paul Morris (educator)|Paul Morris]] and then [[Secretary for Education and Manpower]], [[Arthur Li|Prof. Arthur Li]]. The dispute had apparently been brewing for some time, as far back as June 2002, when the Arthur Li was appointed secretary. Apparently, Li favoured a merger of the institute with [[The Chinese University of Hong Kong]] (CUHK), where he was vice-chancellor.<ref name="rape"/> Morris opposed the merger, and had for some time been campaigning to establish the institute as a university in its own right.<ref name="fears">{{cite web | last = Chong | first = Winnie | title = Institute merger fears as council votes out head | date = 26 January 2007 | publisher = [[The Standard (Hong Kong)|The Standard]] | url = http://www.hkstandard.com.hk/news_detail.asp?we_cat=4&art_id=36934&sid=11908525&con_type=1&d_str=20070126 | access-date = 3 April 2007 | url-status = dead | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20071012084540/http://www.hkstandard.com.hk/news_detail.asp?we_cat=4&art_id=36934&sid=11908525&con_type=1&d_str=20070126 | archive-date = 12 October 2007 | df = dmy-all }}</ref> Morris maintained he had been warned by the Chairman of the council, Dr. Thomas Leung Kwok-fai, as far back as June 2006, that his tenure would end unless he agreed to the amalgamation of the institute with the CUHK.<ref name="fears"/>

===Timeline===
*24 June 2002 – Shortly after Li's appointment as Education Secretary, Li had apparently invited Morris to dinner and proposed a merger of the institute with the Chinese University. Li also apparently offered Morris to head the "super education centre".<ref name="rape">{{cite web

*14 October 2002 – [[Fanny Law]] had met with Arthur Li, Dr. Leung and its former vice chairman Alfred Chan Wing-kin. She issued an "internal email" to staff, stating the institute's wish for an early indication of a possible merger with the education faculty of the CUHK.<ref name="merger">{{cite web

*25 January 2007 – The governing council of the institute decided in a vote of 10 to 3, with three abstentions, not to renew Vice Chancellor Morris' contract. Leung denied Morris' assertion about the threats to the security of his tenure, instead accusing Morris of misinterpreting him. Leung insisted that there was no connection between the two.<ref>[http://www.rthk.org.hk/rthk/news/clocal/news.htm?clocal&20070125&55&374085 RTHK news article] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070311012812/http://www.rthk.org.hk/rthk/news/clocal/news.htm?clocal&20070125&55&374085 |date=11 March 2007 }} {{in lang|zh}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rthk.org.hk/asx/rthk/news/engnews/20070125/20070125_20.asx|title=RTHK audio news summary|access-date=26 January 2007|archive-date=11 March 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070311012750/http://www.rthk.org.hk/asx/rthk/news/engnews/20070125/20070125_20.asx|url-status=dead}}</ref> This led to speculation that the [[Education and Manpower Bureau]] (EMB) was trying to force an amalgamation of the institute with the CUHK.<ref>[http://www.mingpaonews.com/20070126/gca3.htm Mingpao article] {{in lang|zh}},</ref>
*26 January 2007 – Deputy Vice Chancellor Professor [[Bernard Luk Hung-kay]] ({{lang|zh-Hant-HK|陸鴻基}}) alleged on [[RTHK]] Radio 1's Openline Openview phone-in program that during the summer of 2003, after results of the [[Language Proficiency Assessment for Teachers]] were released, the media reported (falsely) that most of 330 teachers who had failed in the test were from The Hong Kong Institute of Education. Professor Luk accused Law for not having set the record straight<ref name="merger"/> and alleged that this publicity resulted in a sharp fall in the number of applications for the next year, though the numbers had since recovered through hard work of the staff. <br /> Prof Luk also corroborated Vice Chancellor Morris' version of events by revealing a secret breakfast meeting that took place between Dr. Leung and the Vice Chancellor in June 2006.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rthk.org.hk/asx/rthk/radio1/openline_openview/20070126.asx|title=Radio 1's Openline Openview phone-in audio}}{{Dead link|date=February 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

For their refusal to make a news release denouncing those teachers who exceeded the placement quota for their profession and who were about to lose their current jobs, Arthur Li was quoted by Luk to have said on 26/27 June 2004, "I'll remember this. You will pay." (The quote was said in English).<ref>{{cite web
