History

The Catholic University of Beijing was founded in 1925 by American Benedictine missionaries and was called from 1927 Fu -Jen University. The Benedictine abbot Alfred Joseph Koch OSB was the last Chancellor of the Fu Jen, who came from the Benedictine Order, before the Divine Word missionary orders took over the management of the University. Pope Pius XI. transferred its line on 29 April 1933, the Society of the Divine Word. The first rector after the takeover of the university by the Divine Word Missionaries was the American Joseph P. Murphy SVD (1895-1935), who, however, died after a short tenure. Subsequently appointed Superior General Josef Grendel SVD (1878-1951) the editor of Anthropos P. Rudolf Rahmann, SVD (1902-1985), Rector of Fu Jen. In October 1936 Rahmann walked to the post he held until 1945. 1945, the American P. Harold Rigney, SVD ( 1900-1980 ) was Rector of Fu Jen and Rahmann was deputy rector. In 1949 the university was seized by the People's Republic of China and incorporated in 1952 in the Beijing Normal University.

In 1960, Fu -Jen University was refounded by the Chinese Bishops' Conference in Taiwan.

In the global rankings of the Times Higher Education in 2006, the Catholic Fu -Jen University was ranked 417 and in 2008 at No. 533 It is thus Taiwan's best private university and is one of the top ten universities in Taiwan.
