The optical engineering of National University of Defense Technology has formed a discipline group with the national first-class key discipline of optical engineering as the core, involving many disciplines such as physical electronics and acoustics. There are 6 doctoral programs in two disciplines, 7 master programs in two disciplines, and 3 undergraduate majors.

The first-class discipline of optical engineering is the national key construction discipline in the Eleventh Five-Year Plan, and it ranked fourth in the national evaluation of optical engineering discipline in 2006, with its main research direction.

There are: laser gyro technology, high-energy laser technology, optical fiber sensing technology, nano-photonics, photoelectric instruments and measurement and control technology, adaptive optics and so on. Among them, laser gyro technology and high-energy laser technology are in the leading position in China.

Ping, some reached the international advanced level. The two disciplines of physical electronics are the key construction disciplines in the 11th Five-Year Plan of Hunan Province, which mainly develop high-power microwave and free electron laser, intense relativistic vacuum electronics and microwave plasma.

Theory and application, high voltage and pulse power technology. The subject of acoustics mainly carries out research on strong sound technology and underwater acoustic engineering. The college has excellent conditions for scientific research and experiments, and has two scientific and technological innovations in the second phase of the "985 Project".

New platform, 1 Key Laboratory of Photonic/Phononic Crystal Technology of Ministry of Education, 12 High-level Professional Laboratory of Photoelectric Technology.
