Historical evolution

At the beginning of the school

In 1939, in order to promote the industrial production in the Shaanxi Gansu Ningxia border region and ensure the victory of the Anti Japanese War, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to establish the Research Institute of natural sciences in Yan'an. It was changed into the Yan'an Academy of natural sciences in the spring of 1940 and merged into Yan'an University in 1943.

After the victory of the Anti Japanese War, Yan'an Academy of natural sciences moved to northeast and North China, and merged with Shanxi Chahar Hebei border industrial vocational school in Zhangjiakou. In January 1946, it established Shanxi Chahar Hebei border industrial vocational school.

In April 1946, according to the needs of the development of the situation, the Institute of technology of Northern University was established in the Shanxi Hebei Shandong border region. In November, Shanxi Chahar Hebei border industrial school and Railway College merged to establish Shanxi Chahar Hebei Industrial Transportation College, which was separated in 1947 and renamed as Shanxi Chahar Hebei border industrial school, located in Jingxing, Hebei Province.

 

The period of the College of technology of North China University

In October 1948, the Shanxi Chahar Hebei border industrial school merged with the Institute of technology of North China University to establish the Institute of technology of North China University as an independent college of North China University.

In August 1949, the Institute of technology of North China University moved to Beijing and was under the leadership of the Ministry of heavy industry of the Central People's government. In order to meet the urgent need of heavy industry at that time, the school added physical prospecting class and Russian specialized course on the basis of the original mechanical and electrical class, metallurgical class, preparatory class, higher vocational department and other classes.

In September 1950, the Ministry of education of the people's Government of North China decided to merge the headquarters and the three departments of mathematics, physics and chemistry of Sino French university into the Institute of technology of North China University.

Period of Beijing Institute of Technology

On November 18, 1951, the Ministry of education of the Central People's government changed the name of the Institute of technology of North China University to Beijing Institute of technology, and the new name was opened on January 1, 1952.

In August 1952, Beijing Institute of iron and steel (now Beijing University of science and Technology) was established by the metallurgy department, mining department and iron and steel machinery specialty of Beijing Institute of technology together with other related departments of other universities. In October, 43 teachers and students majoring in mining and metallurgy of Beijing Institute of technology were transferred to Central South University of mining and Metallurgy (now Central South University). In November, the Department of Aeronautical Engineering of Beijing Institute of technology and the aeronautical departments of other universities jointly established Beijing Institute of Aeronautics.

 

In 1953, the school began postgraduate education.

In 1959, it became one of the first batch of 16 national key universities promulgated by the state.

In July 1961, Beijing Institute of technology artillery, automatic weapons, shells and other professional reorganization for Taiyuan Institute of machinery (now North University).

In 1969, the school was under the leadership of the fifth Ministry of machinery industry (also known as the Ministry of ordnance industry of the people's Republic of China).

In 1981, it was approved by the State Council as one of the first batch of units with doctor's and master's degree authorization in China.

In 1983, appointed by former Defense Minister General Zhang Aiping, it became one of China's 14 famous universities supported by UNESCO loan.

In 1984, it was approved by the State Council as one of the first batch of 22 universities to set up graduate schools.

Beijing University of Technology

On April 2, 1988, in order to adapt to the needs of the University's transformation from a single engineering college to a comprehensive university focusing on engineering and combining science, engineering, management and arts, Beijing Institute of technology was renamed as Beijing University of technology.

 

In 1991, the school was under the leadership of China National Ordnance Industry Corporation.

In 1992, designated by the central government, the University became one of the first 14 vice ministerial universities established by the state.
