Wenzheng is the posthumous name of Fan Zhongyan, a famous feudal official of Song Dynasty. Fan believed that the shortage of talented people was the major problem of the country, so education should be developed. He founded the well-known Suzhou Prefectural School. His maxim, "One should be the first to bear hardships and the last to enjoy comforts", has been exerting great influence on people of later ages. Wenzheng College was named after him for the purpose of encouraging students to be the person as described in the maxim.

 

There are presently 43 undergraduate programs including laws, literature, economics, management, science, engineering, etc. The college is well provided with up-to-date teaching facilities including multifunctional library and lab. It stresses on training students with self-supervising, scientific innovative and social capabilities.
