The history of China Three Gorges University can be traced back to 1923, when the China Medical Missionary Association founded the Medical Technicians School (Bo Yi Ji Zhuan) in Anqing, Anhui. In 1928, the school moved from Anqing to Hankou and continued to operate through wars until the founding of the People's Republic of China. In 1952, the Medical Technicians School merged with the Central South Health Personnel Training Institute to form the Central South Health College, which was renamed Hubei Provincial Health Cadre Training School in 1956. In 1958, the Hubei Provincial Health Cadre Training School merged with Hubei Provincial Medical College to form Wuchang Medical College, which moved to Yichang in 1960 and merged with Yichang Medical College to form a new Yichang Medical College. In 1993, the school was named Yichang Medical College. In 1946, Yidu Normal School was established; in 1950, it moved to Yichang and was renamed Hubei Provincial Yichang Normal School; in 1978, it was renamed Yichang Normal College; and in 1993, it was named Yichang Normal College. In 1978, Yichang Higher Industrial Class (Gao Gong Ban) was established; in 1983, based on this class, Yichang Vocational University was founded; and in 1986, it was renamed Yichang University. In 1995, Yichang Medical College, Yichang Normal College, and Yichang University merged to form Hubei Three Gorges College, which was officially established in 1996. On April 1, 1978, the State Council approved the establishment of Gezhouba Institute of Hydroelectric Engineering, the only undergraduate institution in the country named after an engineering project at that time. The institute was successively under the administration of the Ministry of Water Resources and Electric Power, the Ministry of Energy, and the Ministry of Electric Power Industry. In 1996, Gezhouba Institute of Hydroelectric Engineering merged with Wuhan University of Hydraulic and Electric Engineering to form the new Wuhan University of Hydraulic and Electric Engineering (Yichang), with campuses in Wuhan and Yichang, and entered the "211 Project" construction ranks that same year.
