Future development direction of Donghua University: On the basis of maintaining the traditional dominant disciplines, we will continue to explore multidisciplinary development and build a high-level university. Today, Donghua University, as a key construction institution of "2 1 1 Project" directly under the Ministry of Education, has rapidly developed into a key university with the largest scale, the most comprehensive disciplines and the highest level in China's textile and clothing fields. It is not only the leader of domestic industry, but also far ahead in the world.

School features:

Donghua University, founded in 195 1, formerly known as East China Institute of Textile Technology, is also the first textile institution of higher learning in New China. In the course of nearly 60 years' development, it has formed distinct advantages and characteristics of textile discipline.

In order to focus on the development of dominant disciplines, Donghua University concentrated the construction funds of the Tenth Five-Year Plan "2 1 1 Project", all of which were invested in four characteristic dominant disciplines, such as textiles, materials, dyeing and finishing, and clothing, and started construction according to the idea of "key investment, key construction and key breakthrough".
