Why Study in GDEI


Predominant Geological Location

Guangdong University of Education is located in downtown Guangzhou, the capital city of Guangdong Province. Guangzhou is the main manufacturing hub of the Pearl River Delta, one of mainland China's leading commercial and manufacturing regions. Guangzhou is also known as the host city for the China Import and Export Fair, also called "Canton Fair". By far Guangzhou has been twinned with 12 foreign cities, including Los Angeles in the US, Sydney in Australia and Bangkok in Thailand and so on. International students can experience the cultural integration of Guangzhou which has always been adhering to embracing the world with an open mind.

With the excellent school heritage of “pursuing the truth, concerning people’s well-being and undertaking social responsibilities”, each student at GDUE is encouraged to be not only “a person of noble character who makes the world a better place” but also to be professionals possessing a range of competences, knowledge and skills.
