On 23 December 2020, the unveiling ceremony for the establishment of Hunan Open University was held. Established on the foundation of Hunan Radio and TV University (Hunan RTVU), Hunan Open University (Hunan OU) is not just a simple renaming; rather, it is a symbol of profound educational reform and the strategic transformation of the cause of the university.

The construction of Hunan OU demonstrates an in-depth integration of modern education and information technology. The university will strengthen communication and cooperation both inside and outside of its system and the open education system as a whole and leverage its brand new concept to integrate established resource advantages such as open education, higher vocational education, lifelong learning, and non-degree training into the overall improvement of its school-running ability.
