Expand:
First, the analysis of the origin of professional names
Energy and power engineering belongs to the category of energy and power in engineering. 1998 The Catalogue of Undergraduate Majors in Colleges and Universities promulgated by the Ministry of Education merged nine majors, including thermal energy engineering, thermal energy engineering and power machinery, heat engine, refrigeration and cryogenic engineering, fluid machinery and fluid engineering, water conservancy and hydropower power engineering, engineering thermophysics, energy engineering and refrigeration and refrigeration, into 1 major.
The revised undergraduate specialty catalogue on 20 12 further combines "thermal energy and power engineering", "energy engineering and its automation", "energy power system and its automation" and "energy and resource engineering" into "energy and power engineering". As can be seen from the above-mentioned merged majors, the scope of energy and power engineering is very wide, and various schools have set up many professional directions according to their different advantages and characteristics. In its professional direction, "thermal energy and power engineering" is the most common. After the adjustment of specialty name, the generalization of energy and power engineering specialty is more scientific and accurate. Many universities have retained their original characteristics and expanded their research scope.
What does energy and power engineering study?
Energy and power engineering includes two parts: one is energy and the other is power. Energy refers to all kinds of resources that can be obtained directly or through processing and transformation, including primary energy such as coal, crude oil, natural gas, hydropower, nuclear energy, wind energy, solar energy, geothermal energy, biomass energy, secondary energy such as electricity, heat and refined oil, and other new and renewable energy. Motivation is to study how to transform all kinds of energy into the power we need. Power technologies include many, such as boilers, internal combustion engines, aero-engines, refrigeration and related technologies.
Oil is converted into power, coal and natural gas into electricity, and so on. In the final analysis, it is the transformation of energy. For example, power generation studies how to convert thermal energy into mechanical energy, and then further into electrical energy. Simply put, the major of energy and power engineering studies how to convert energy safely, cleanly and efficiently, and apply them to generate electricity for people to use.
Courses offered according to major settings are also different.
Because the specialty of energy and power engineering contains a wide range of professional directions, colleges and universities will set courses according to their own professional directions and advantages: some focus on electricity and boilers; Some focus on internal combustion engines and automobile engines; Some emphasize refrigeration and low temperature. Students can see that different schools offer many different courses.
For example, the main basic courses and specialized courses of this major in North China Electric Power University include: engineering thermodynamics, engineering fluid mechanics, heat transfer, steam turbine principle, boiler principle, thermal power plant, pump and fan, steam turbine operation, boiler operation, automatic control theory, engineering graphics, mechanical design basis, electrical technology basis, electronic technology basis, high-temperature metal materials in power plants, etc.
During their study in Beijing Jiaotong University, students majoring in this major not only study basic courses and main courses such as engineering thermodynamics, engineering fluid mechanics and heat transfer, but also study professional platform courses such as engineering combustion, thermal energy and power testing technology, and learn professional characteristic courses such as internal combustion engine, automobile theory or boiler principle and steam turbine principle according to their professional direction.
Second, the overall employment rate of majors and employment is not low.
Energy is an important material basis for economic and social development. Generally speaking, a country's gross national product is roughly proportional to its energy consumption. Energy and power engineering is directly related to the development of national economy and the level of people's living standards, so the employment rate of related majors is also at a high level for a long time. Before the adjustment of professional name, the employment rate of "Thermal Energy and Power Engineering" was in the range of 90%-95% for many years (according to the data of Sunshine College Entrance Examination Platform).
The total employment rate of energy and power engineering major in North China Electric Power University in recent three years is over 95%: 20 13 years, the employment rate of power industry is 53. 18%, and the postgraduate entrance examination rate is 33.53%. 20 14 the employment rate of power industry is 57.06%, and the postgraduate entrance examination rate is 3 1.30%. 20 15 The employment rate of power industry is 54.03%, and the postgraduate entrance examination rate is 35.52%. The main fields of employment are: various power plants and power companies, power construction engineering companies, machinery manufacturing enterprises, power equipment manufacturing enterprises and energy and power enterprises.
Of course, going to an electric power enterprise is only one of the students' choices. Dynamic graduates have a wide range of employment fields, and where to go for employment has a lot to do with opportunities and the chosen professional direction.
One of the most widely employed majors in the future.
"Dynamic major is one of the most widely employed majors in China in the next 20 years." Talking about employment, President Wang is full of confidence: "Energy and power engineering is a synthesis of many sciences and technologies, which are widely used in energy, electric power, automobiles, ships, aerospace engineering, agricultural engineering, environmental engineering and other fields. After graduation, students can engage in many specific tasks such as system design, operation, automatic control, information processing, computer application, environmental protection, new energy development, and efficient and clean utilization of energy. "
Xiao Zhang is a graduate majoring in thermal energy and power engineering. He said: "In the past, some people joked that our major was boiler burning, and all students graduated as senior boiler workers. This view is very narrow. Now energy power engineering covers not only boilers and thermal generators, but also fluid machinery such as steam turbines and gas turbines, as well as water conservancy machinery, air conditioning engineering, refrigeration and low temperature engineering and so on. If some students want to work in automobile, aerospace, nuclear power, power equipment, air conditioning and refrigeration enterprises in the future, it is a good choice to take the initiative to major. For example, many students study the direction of heat engine and internal combustion engine, and their employment orientation can be placed in major automobile factories, such as FAW, BAIC, Volkswagen and Geely. Most automobile factories have engine factories and R&D departments, and some specialized engine design companies are also very good. In addition, enterprises that produce diesel engines and agricultural machinery are also good places for graduates of this major to find jobs. "
Iii. application guide 1. Look at the characteristics of colleges and universities
At present, there are Tsinghua University, Harbin Institute of Technology, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Zhejiang University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Xi Jiaotong University, Beihang University, North China Electric Power University, etc. 173 energy and power engineering colleges in China. Because the major involves a wide range, each school has its own advantages in the professional direction according to its own characteristics.
For example, Xi Jiaotong University, Shanghai Jiaotong University and Tianjin University all have advantages in the direction of internal combustion engines, and many of them are national key disciplines; This major of Beihang University belongs to a direction of "aircraft power engineering" when enrolling students, and it is more focused on aero-engines; The energy and power engineering of Jiangsu University focuses on fluid machinery, and its "fluid machinery and engineering" discipline is the only national key discipline with pump as its research feature. The major of North China Electric Power University was originally called "Thermal Energy Engineering of Power Plant". As can be seen from the professional name, this major mainly studies how to convert thermal energy into electrical energy. Candidates can take into account the characteristics of the school, their hobbies and scores when applying for the exam.
Look at the professional direction
The first-level discipline corresponding to the major of energy and power engineering is "power engineering and engineering thermophysics", which covers many places of engineering thermophysics, thermal engineering, power machinery and engineering, fluid machinery and engineering, chemical process machinery and other two disciplines. There are also many professional directions offered by various schools, such as thermal power engineering, energy and environmental engineering, refrigeration and air conditioning engineering, building environment and energy application, internal combustion engines, automobiles and engines. Energy and power engineering in many colleges and universities is adjusted from "thermal energy and power engineering", so "thermal energy and power engineering" is the most common major.
For example, the energy and power engineering major of Beijing Jiaotong University is divided into "the major direction of thermal energy engineering" and "the major direction of automobile and engine". Students can choose the direction according to their hobbies from the sixth semester. The energy and power engineering majors of Tianjin University are "internal combustion engine" and "thermal energy engineering". The discipline of "Power Machinery and Engineering" with internal combustion engine as the research direction is a national key discipline, and the research direction of "Thermal Energy Engineering" is the efficient utilization and refrigeration of medium and low temperature heat energy. This major of North China Electric Power University includes three major directions: thermal power and engineering, centralized control operation of power plants, gas turbines and combined cycles.
It is worth noting that many of the above-mentioned professional directions are not available in every school, and some of them are not national enrollment even if they are offered. Candidates can refer to the "Enrollment Professional Catalogue" issued by this province in the same year to inquire about the enrollment plan and professional direction.
3. Pay attention to large-scale enrollment
In addition, parents of candidates can see from the catalogue of enrollment majors in recent years that the names used by different schools are not exactly the same. Generally, there are two situations: one is to enroll students according to the specialty of energy and power engineering, and the other is to enroll students according to the category of energy and power.
For example, Wuhan University enrolls students according to energy and power, including energy and power engineering, nuclear engineering and nuclear technology, and energy and chemical industry. Chongqing University enrolls students according to energy and power, including energy and power engineering, new energy science and engineering. Xi Jiaotong University enrolls students in energy and power majors according to major categories, including energy and power engineering and new energy science and engineering. "Energy and Power" of University of Science and Technology Beijing includes two majors: energy and power engineering, building environment and energy application engineering. Recruit students according to major categories, and implement a wide-caliber training model after enrollment. After one and a half years, students will enter different majors according to their own wishes and academic performance at school.
At present, there is 19 college enrollment "energy and motivation". Candidates can know in advance what majors are included in the professional enrollment of each school before entering the exam.
Pay attention to physical requirements
The major of energy and power has certain requirements for candidates' physical conditions. According to the Guiding Opinions on Physical Examination of College Admissions, the main organs are lung, liver, kidney, spleen and gastrointestinal tract. , had major surgery and recovered well, or had a history of myocarditis, gastric or duodenal ulcer, chronic bronchitis, rheumatoid arthritis, etc. And hyperthyroidism has been cured for a year, which is not suitable for learning energy and motivation. Don't study energy and power if the lens is corrected to 4.8 at a glance and the power is greater than 800 degrees. Other schools also have hints in the application requirements, such as not suitable for candidates with abnormal color vision (color blindness and weak color). Candidates should carefully read the enrollment regulations of colleges and universities to see if there are any special requirements to avoid omission.
