Date of establishment

释义

Government establishment
University establishment
Institution establishment

The date of establishment or date of founding of an institution is the date on which that institution chooses to claim as its starting point. Often the criteria that define a date of establishment or founding are ill-defined—or more specifically, are ill-defined in general, although each institution tends to adopt a rather rigid definition of its own date of establishment.

Government establishment

A government of a nation state may define its date of establishment by:

Declaration of independence from a now-foreign power, e.g. June 1776 of the United States of America
Ratification of its constitution
Signing of a treaty ending a revolutionary war

Other definitions of establishment are also possible.

University establishment

A university may define its date of establishment as:

The date at which the papers of its incorporation was approved
The date on which it first opened for the teaching of classes
If the university derived from a previously-established institution, either the reorganization or the establishment of the parent institution

Other definitions of the date on which a university was established are also possible, as considered reasonable by the university's governing body or executive officers.

Institution establishment

Ultimately an established date of an institution either is decided upon as an internal matter by that institution or is decided for that institution by a normative higher authority outside that institution. For all institutions falling into a particular type of similar institutions, if the date of establishment is not decided by the same authority using the same criteria variations in the definition of the date of establishment can arise.
