What kind of university is Huazhong University of Science and Technology?
Huazhong University of Science and Technology, referred to as Huazhong University, also known as South China University of Technology and Huazhong University of Science and Technology; Founded in 1953, it is located at the foot of Yu Jia Mountain and the shore of East Lake. As a key university directly under the Ministry of Education of China, it covers science, engineering, medicine, literature, management and other disciplines. It is a comprehensive university with strong strength in science, engineering and medicine and expertise in other fields. Huazhong University of Science and Technology is currently one of the largest first-class institutions of higher learning in China. It is one of the first universities in China to be included in "2 1 1 Project" and "985 Project". As one of the national national cheng kung university established after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it is called "the epitome of the development of higher education in New China". Historical Evolution Huazhong University of Science and Technology19531June 0 15 The former mechanical departments of Wuhan University, Nanchang University, Hunan University and Guangxi University were all merged with the electrical department and the power and electrical departments of the mechanical department of South China University of Technology to form Huazhong University of Science and Technology. There are Wuchang headquarters, Changsha branch, Nanchang branch and Guilin branch. On the same day, the inaugural meeting of Huazhong University of Science and Technology was held in Wuchang headquarters. 1953101On October 24th, Changsha Branch held its opening ceremony. 1954, the branch began to move to Wuchang headquarters, which was completed in mid-August. 1June, 955, the State Council officially appointed Cha Qian as the president of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and Peng Tianqi, Liu Gancai and Zhu as vice presidents. 1960 Huazhong university of science and technology has been designated as a national key university by the state. 1966-1976 during the "ten-year cultural revolution", Huazhong institute of technology relatively well protected a group of science and engineering experts and scholars, laying the foundation for future development. 1980, Huazhong University of Science and Technology established China Language Institute and English Department. It was transformed into a comprehensive university 1 984 July 13, and Huazhong University of Science and Technology established a graduate school1988 June1.In May 2000, Huazhong University of Science and Technology was renamed Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and its Chinese name was changed to Huazhong University of Science and Technology, but its English name remained unchanged. From June 5, 2003 to 10, Huazhong University of Science and Technology celebrated its 50th anniversary. Tongji Medical University 1907 10 10, German Medical College was established in Shanghai 1 908, renamed as Tongji German Medical College 19 12, and renamed as Tongji Medical College/. Tongji Medical College was renamed private Tongji Medical College on May 20, 2004, Tongji Medical College was renamed Tongji Medical College in August, 2007, and Tongji Medical College was renamed National Tongji University. In February, 2005, Shanghai Tongji Medical College and its affiliated tongji hospital moved to Wuhan and merged with Wuhan University Medical College. After the merger, the newly established school was named Zhongnan Tongji Medical College1August 1955, Zhongnan Tongji Medical College was renamed Wuhan Medical College, health students and some teachers of Shandong Medical College were adjusted and merged with teachers and students of the College Public Health Museum to form the Department of Health1July 1985, Wuhan Medical College was renamed Tongji Medical College in June 2000, and Tongji Medical College was renamed Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in 2007. In the new historical period, on February 28th, 2000, the Cadre Management College of the Ministry of Science and Technology was merged into Huazhong University of Science and Technology. On May 26th, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Tongji Medical University and Wuhan Urban Construction College merged, and the Chinese name was changed to Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Huazhong University of Science and Technology is the main campus of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Tongji Medical University is Tongji Medical College, and Wuhan Urban Construction College is the east campus of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. On June 6th, 2003, 10, Huazhong University of Science and Technology celebrated its 50th anniversary, and also celebrated the 96th anniversary of Tongji Medical University and the 5th anniversary of Wuhan City University. At this point, through the acquisition of surrounding land and large-scale construction, the main campus and the east campus of the school have been successfully integrated. At present, the school has two campuses: the main campus and Tongji campus. Former principals Cha Zhuqian Jiu Si [1] (1975 ~1984) Huang Shuhuai [2] (1984 ~1988; Huazhong institute of technology 1988~ 1993 was renamed as Huazhong university of science and technology) Yang Shuzi [3]( 1993~ 1997) Zhou Ji [4] (Huazhong university of science and technology 1997 ~ 2000 was renamed as.
