History

The original plan of the Guangzhou–Foshan circular intercity railway was to set up a station in and did not pass through the Guangdong Science Center. However, in September 2015, the line was adjusted to avoid the , choosing to pass through the Higher Education Mega Center and set up a station next to Guangdong Science Center. This not only reduced the difficulty of project implementation but also made up for the long-term transportation inconvenience of the science center. The original plan of the station passed through the site of the forthcoming Seismic Control and Structural Safety Laboratory Building of Guangzhou University. During the public consultation stage, the university raised objections. After coordination, the route was adjusted to bypass Guangzhou University and relocate the nearby entrance and exit away from the campus side.

The station began construction in July 2017, and the main structure topped out on 2 July 2021. In January 2024, construction of the science plaza on the surface level of the station began.

The station was called Science Center station during the planning and construction phase. Before opening, the station was renamed to Guangzhou Higher Education Mega Center (Guangzhoudaxuecheng) station.

On 29 September 2025, the station opened.
