History
It was founded in 1924 as Guangdong Traditional Chinese Medicine and Pharmacology School (Chinese: 广东中医药专门学校), a tertiary educational institution approved by the government of the Republic of China. In 1956, it became Guangzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine College, with the approval of the State Council of the People's Republic of China, and is one of four earliest established institutions in China specializing in Chinese traditional medicine. It was originally directly affiliated with the Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China and the State Administration of Traditional Medicine. In 2000, the university became a joint venture between the central government and provincial government, but mainly under the jurisdiction of Guangdong province.
