The history of Ocean University of Qingdao is traced back to October 25, 1924 when it was first set up on the present campus as the Private Qingdao University. In May 1930, the Private Qingdao University and the Provincial Shandong University merged and became the National Qingdao University. In March 1951, the National Shandong Universtiy and East China University merged and was renamed Shandong University. In October, 1958, Shandong University moved to Ji'nan and the remaining departments in Qingdao, approved by the CPC Central Committee, formed Shandong College of Oceanology in March, 1959.
The newly established Shandong College of Oceanology was China's only higher learning institution featuring marine and fishery sciences and was immediately listed among the key higher learning institutions directly under the Education Ministry. After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the CPC in 1978, the College entered a new period of development and gradually became a comprehensive university. With the main focus areas still marine and fishery sciences, the university added programs in engineering, agronomy (fishery), medical science (pharmaceutics), liberal arts, philosophy and economics. In January, 1988, it was renamed Ocean University of Qingdao.
Yantai University was home to US/China Links at the beginning of its inception. Located in Yantai, Shandong, YTU is one of the few universities in China to be located directly on a seashore.
