Wenzhou–Kean University is a university in Wenzhou, Zhejiang, China. It was established in 2014 as a joint venture between Wenzhou University and the Kean University of New Jersey.^[1]

In March 2014, the Ministry of Education of China approved the establishment of Wenzhou–Kean University. The university received its accreditation to confer bachelor's degrees in 2018 and to confer professional graduate degrees in 2019.^[1]

The construction project and all costs of operating Wenzhou–Kean University will be paid for through tuition and financing provided by the municipal and provincial governments in China. There will be no cost to Kean University or the state of New Jersey.^[2] The partnership will be with Wenzhou University, a institution in Zhejiang Province, which will bear the entire cost, estimated to exceed $60 million.
