Nine universities announced significant progress in the construction of their Xiong'an New Area campuses, adding to the initial four universities that have already started relocating and Beijing Institute of Technology, which officially announced plans to establish a campus there earlier this year.

The nine new universities include the well-known Beihang University, Beijing Language and Culture University, North China Electric Power University and the Communication University of China.

North China Electric Power University recently released a pre-qualification announcement for soliciting the overall planning scheme for its Xiong'an campus, confirming its commitment to the project.
