1953 the department of civil engineering of Lanzhou technical school in Gansu province offers the specialty of building construction.

1955 water supply and drainage specialty was added to the civil engineering department of Lanzhou Technical School in Gansu Province.

Gansu University of Technology was founded in 1958. The Department of Civil Engineering is specialized in industrial and civil architecture, water supply and drainage, and the Department of Transportation is specialized in highways, roads and bridges. 1959 the transportation department was merged into the civil engineering department, and the water supply and drainage specialty was cancelled.

1965 adjust the discipline structure, the school is placed under the Ministry of Mechanical Industry, and the Department of Civil Engineering only retains the majors of industrial and civil architecture.

1977 the department of civil engineering was renamed the department of architectural engineering.

198 1 the major of industrial and civil architecture was awarded the first batch of bachelor's degrees by the state and began to jointly train graduate students.

1986 The third batch of the State Council Academic Degrees Committee approved the right to grant master's degrees in structural engineering.

1987 industrial and civil architecture opened architecture specialty. 1993 architecture specialty was formally added to the department of architectural engineering.

1994 the major of industrial and civil architecture was renamed as the major of architectural engineering.

1997 the department of chemical engineering added HVAC specialty.

1998 structural engineering was awarded the key support discipline of Gansu province. The major of architectural engineering offers the direction of architectural economic management.

During 1999, the major of architectural engineering was renamed as the major of civil engineering, and the major of HVAC was renamed as the major of building environment and equipment engineering. The major of civil engineering has passed the higher education evaluation of the Ministry of Construction.

200 1 the school of architecture and engineering was established, and the specialty of engineering management and urban planning was added. Geotechnical engineering has the right to award master's degrees.

In 2002, architectural and civil engineering was trained as a master of field engineering. Architecture, urban planning and industrial design majors of the former Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering set up the School of Design Art; The School of Civil Engineering and Architecture was renamed the School of Civil Engineering. The major of building environment and equipment engineering in the former Institute of Petrochemical Technology was assigned to the College of Civil Engineering, and structural engineering became a provincial key discipline.

Water supply and drainage specialty was added in 2003.

In 2003, structural engineering was awarded the right of doctor's degree, and disaster prevention and mitigation and protection engineering was awarded the right of master's degree.

In 2005, the first-class discipline of civil engineering was awarded master's degree (including structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, disaster prevention and mitigation engineering and protection engineering, bridge and tunnel engineering, municipal engineering and heating, gas supply and ventilation and air conditioning engineering in six two disciplines cities).

In 2006, the first-class discipline of civil engineering became a provincial key discipline.

In 2007, the first-class discipline of civil engineering became Post-Doctoral Research Center, and it was approved to set up the "Western Civil Engineering Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Engineering Research Center of the Ministry of Education". Structural engineering has become the most important construction discipline in the school, civil engineering teaching team has become the school teaching demonstration team, and water supply and drainage engineering teaching team has become the school's key support teaching team.

In 2008, he presided over the meeting of the presidents of the Western Institute of Civil Engineering.
