The '''Imperial University of Peking''' was set up on [[July 3]], [[1898]], as a result of the [[Hundred Days' Reform]] (also called the Reform Movement of 1898, which was launched by [[Kang Youwei]] and other reformers under the auspices of [[Emperor Guangxu]] and suppressed by the [[Empress Dowager Cixi]]). ]<br />
<br />
The educational guidelines of the university prescribed “combined use of Chinese and western knowledge”. Its watchword was “Wide Cultivation of Talents, with the Emphasis on Current Affairs”. <br />
<br />
The university was closed when the eight-power allied forces - aggressive troops sent by Britain, the United States, Germany, France, tsarist Russia, Japan, Italy and Austria - invaded Beijing in 1900 and reopened on [[CIIC:Selected anniversaries/December 17, 2009|December 17]], [[1902]].<br />
<br />
It was China's first national comprehensive university and, at the time, the country's highest education institution. After 1911 Xinhai Revolution, it was renamed [[Peking University]].<br />
