History

edit

Established on 1 September 1936 in Maqun, Nanking as Central Police College by merging Police High School, MOI and Chechiang Provincial Police School. In 1937, the school college was moved to Danzhishi, Chungking due to the outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War. After the National Revolutionary Army won the war in 1945, the college was moved back to Nanking.

Due to the Chinese Civil War in 1949, the college was moved to Canton, then Chungking, and finally Taiwan where it was consolidated with Training Course for Police Officers in Taipei.

On 20 December 1995, the college was formally renamed Central Police University after approval was given by the Legislative Yuan on 12 December 1995.[4]
