Palmerston North Institute of Xi'an University (PNI (XAU)) was officially approved for establishment by the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China in December 2025, with the approval number MOE61NA02DNR20252597N.
Located in Xi'an Gaoxin, the starting point of the ancient Silk Road, the Institute closely aligns with the national Belt and Road Initiative. Centered on its core positioning of serving national strategies, advancing industry-education integration and cultivating international digital talents, it focuses on the core track of "AI + Digital Innovation". By integrating high-quality Chinese and foreign educational resources, we build a high-standard international application-oriented undergraduate education platform, delivering high-caliber application-oriented talents with solid technical capabilities, global vision and bilingual communication skills for the upgrading of regional digital industries, cross-border digital economy and cross-cultural exchanges.
Xi'an University is a full-time public undergraduate university sponsored by Xi'an Municipal Government and co-built by municipal and provincial authorities. PNI(XAU) is an on-campus public secondary teaching institute at the same administrative level as the Information Engineering teaching institute. It is fully integrated into the university's public education system, sharing all campus resources including teaching staff, libraries, laboratories, , campus recruitment services.
Admissions are conducted under the public undergraduate batch of the national Gaokao. All enrolled students are registered as full-time public undergraduates of Xi'an University, and simultaneously enrolled as full-time students of the overseas partner institute. Students who satisfy the academic requirements of both institutions will be awarded full-time graduation certificate and degree certificate issued by Xi'an University main campus (the certificates adopt the identical format as those of regular majors without any label of "independent college"), as well as the degree certificate from the overseas partner institute.
Xi'an University is a full-time public undergraduate university sponsored by Xi'an Municipal Government and co-built by municipal and provincial authorities, also the only municipal public undergraduate university in Xi'an.
