After the establishment of Tokyo University and Kyoto University, Kyushu University was established in 19 1 1. At that time, there were only two disciplines: Kyushu Imperial University Medical University and Kyushu Imperial University Engineering University. 19 19, in addition to the revision of the university decree, the original two branches were changed into medical departments and engineering departments, and an agronomy department was added. In the following six years, French department and science department were added. After World War II, Japan's education system was thoroughly reformed, and Kyushu Imperial University was changed to Kyushu University. Soon the French department was divided into three parts, and the departments of law, literature and economics were established, and the department of education was added. At the same time, Fukuoka High School and kurume Institute of Technology merged into Kyushu University. Since then, correction, pharmacy and dentistry have been added one after another. 1953 Kyushu university graduate school was established. In 2000, in order to better carry out education and research across disciplines and departments, "institutions of higher learning and research institutes" were established. In 2004, with the reform of corporate governance of national universities, Kyushu University was also changed to corporate governance of national universities, further enhancing the independence and autonomy of universities. In 2005, Yidu new campus covering an area of 275 hectares was partially put into use. According to the statistics in 2005, there are 1 1 departments, 17 institutions of higher learning, 16 research institutes, 3 affiliated research institutes and hospitals, with about18,200 students, 2,320 teachers and 2 staff members.

1903 In April, Fukuoka Medical University, a branch of Imperial University of Kyoto, was established as the predecessor of Kyushu University. At that time, due to the great difficulties in finance, land purchase and school building construction, Kyushu Imperial Medical University officially hung out eight years later, namely 19 1 1, and Kyushu Imperial University of Technology, which is also the basis for Kyushu University to become a comprehensive university today. 1947 was renamed Kyushu university. 1949, including the old Kyushu University in Fukuoka, together with the Faculty of Medicine affiliated to Kyushu University, Fukuoka Institute of Advanced Studies and kurume Institute of Technology, became the new Kyushu University. The facilities and personnel of the old Fukuoka Institute of Higher Education were merged into the first branch of Kyushu University (1955 and the second branch were merged into Kyushu University Branch, 1963 was called the Ministry of Education), the old Kurume Institute of Technology was established as the second branch (1955 was merged into the first branch), and the former site of the 48th company of the old army infantry was established as the third branch (65438+)
The campus of Kyushu University is relatively concentrated, except for some affiliated research facilities and practice bases, such as farms, forest farms and marine volcano observation stations, which are distributed in other areas outside Kyushu and Kyushu. Teaching, research and administrative infrastructure are all in Fukuoka City. In order to catch up with the rapid development of the new technological revolution, the Japanese government recently entrusted three key frontier research projects, namely energy, space science and cancer, to several national universities with a long history, among which Kyushu University is one. For example, in the project of developing new energy by indoor nuclear fusion, the Japanese government spends 654.38+000 billion yen every year on equipment renovation and strengthening research strength.
The Department of Superconductivity and Plasma of Kyushu University actively participated in the research of this major project. In addition, Kyushu University has a perfect prediction network in Kyushu, western Japan, in ocean, volcano and earthquake prediction. In the research of cancer, the Institute of Biomedical Sciences has cooperated with other universities on the etiology, diagnosis and treatment of cancer, and has made gratifying progress. Kyushu University has always had a good style of study and rigorous scholarship, attaching importance to students' practice and practice, and teachers attach importance to heuristic teaching. Graduates are very popular with employers. It is no exaggeration to say that Kyushu University today has truly become an important institution of higher learning in western Japan.
