About HangZhou Polytechnic

Hangzhou Polytechnic (hereinafter HZPT) is a publicly-funded higher vocational institute sponsored by Hangzhou Municipal Government, and was developed depending on Hangzhou Adult University of Science and Technology after being approved by People’s Government of Zhejiang Province in December 1999. In December 2006, Hangzhou Municipal Government reached a decision that Hangzhou Radio and Television University and Hangzhou Adult University of Science and Technology would co-establish Hangzhou Polytechnic.

During the course of its development, there are several schools incorporated into Hangzhou Radio and Television University, including Xianghu Normal School of Zhejiang Province established by the renowned educator, Tao Xingzhi, Hangzhou Urban Construction School and Hangzhou Radio and Television Secondary School.
