The education society in modern Chinese universities emerged alongside the institutionalization of the education discipline, characterized by an interdisciplinary integration. The society’s core functions include providing a highly-effective organizational structure, conducting monographic research, hosting academic lectures, and publishing scholarly journals, all of which demonstrate its role as a key academic organization. The society’s primary members are students from departments or colleges of education, which reflects the disciplinary influence on the educational field. While these students played an active role, the guidance and support from education faculty members—who mentored, assisted, and encouraged academic research—were crucial in shaping the collaborative academic environment between students and professors. In this way, the education society became an important platform for educational professionals and researchers to engage in academic discourse and practice. It not only heightened members’ awareness and capacity for educational research but also contributed to the development of educational disciplines within universities.
