Brief introduction of Henan Polytechnic University

1. Henan Polytechnic University was founded on 1909. It is the first mining institution of higher learning in China, the earliest institution of higher learning in Henan Province, and a key university in Henan Province founded by the central and local governments with local management as the mainstay. In 2004, it changed its name to Henan Polytechnic University after such important historical periods as Jiaozuo Road and Mining School, Fuzhong University of Mining and Technology, private Jiaozuo Institute of Technology, National Northwest Institute of Technology, National Jiaozuo Institute of Technology, Jiaozuo Institute of Mining and Jiaozuo Institute of Technology. 20 1 1 became a university jointly established by the people's government of Henan province and the State Administration of Work Safety, and 20 12 was selected as the national "Basic Capacity Building Project for Universities in the Midwest".

In the first half of the 20th century, many scholars, such as Cai Yuanpei, Sun, geologist Weng,,, and so on, successively taught in the school, leading the school to shoulder the historical responsibility of cultivating advanced technical talents in mining and mining, and made special contributions to the national industrial revitalization, national economic development and social civilization progress. The school spirit of "self-improvement, striving for progress", the school motto of "Mingde is responsible" and the school spirit of "learning from time to time" formed after hardships have been passed down from generation to generation.

There are 22 teaching colleges, reserve officer colleges, international education colleges, continuing education colleges and safety technology training colleges. There are 5 national experimental teaching demonstration centers, such as Electrical, Electronics and Engineering Training Center, and national virtual simulation experimental teaching center 1, and a university science park and college students' innovation and entrepreneurship base 1, with a total value of teaching and research instruments and equipment of 570 million yuan. The school adheres to the strategy of "open development" and has established friendly and cooperative relations with more than 60 universities and scientific research institutions in more than 30 countries and regions.

The school has outstanding advantages in engineering, distinctive features in safety, geology and mineral resources, and coordinated development of science, economics and management, humanities and other disciplines. At present, there are 5 post-doctoral research stations, 4 doctoral programs in first-level disciplines and 32 doctoral programs in two disciplines. 18 master's degree program in first-level disciplines and 1 19 master's degree program in two disciplines (direction); Have the right to give up the master's degree, have the qualification to continue studying for the master's degree and master's degree, and have the right to recruit master's students in four professional degree categories: engineering, business administration (MBA), public administration (MPA) and Chinese international education, and recruit part-time master's students; There are 74 undergraduate majors, covering 9 disciplines: science, engineering, management, literature, law, economics, teaching, arts and medicine.
