History of University of Technology

carve

Harbin Sino Russian Industrial School (the predecessor of Harbin Institute of Technology) was established in May 1920, and the opening ceremony was held on October 17. At that time, there were two sections: Railway Construction and electrical and mechanical engineering. A total of 103 students were enrolled in the first three classes. The credit system was implemented and the length of schooling was four years. All students were taught in Russian.

On April 2, 1922, the school was renamed Sino Russian University of technology. The school was changed from four years to five years. The original two departments were changed into the Department of railway architecture and the Department of mechanical and electrical engineering. The graduates will be awarded the title of engineer if they are qualified by the examination committee.

On February 4, 1928, the subordinate relationship of the school changed. The school was led by the special economic zone of the eastern province of the Republic of China, and its name was changed to the Industrial University of the special economic zone of the eastern province.

On October 20, 1928, the school of law and politics and the school of business were merged, and the school was officially named Harbin Institute of technology, which was jointly managed by China and the Soviet Union.

In the spring of 1931, we began to recruit graduate students.

With the invasion of the northeast by Japanese imperialism, the school was completely taken over by the Japanese in 1935. It was taught in Japanese instead and designated to recruit Chinese and Japanese students.

On January 1, 1936, the University was renamed National Harbin Institute of technology.

After January 1937, the school was completely transferred to the Japanese mode.

From January 1, 1938, the University was renamed "national Harbin Institute of technology". Since then, the name of Harbin Institute of technology has been used to this day.

After the victory of the "September 3" Anti Japanese war in 1945, Harbin Institute of technology was jointly managed by the governments of China and the Soviet Union and led by the Zhongchang Railway Bureau. At that time, the purpose of running the school was to train engineering and technical personnel for the medium and long-term railway. The length of schooling was five years, all of them taught in Russian. Before the new China took over in 1950, there were departments and preparatory courses in civil engineering and construction, electrical machinery, engineering economy, mining, chemical industry and Oriental economy.

From its establishment in 1920 to its liberation, Harbin Institute of technology has been running schools in Russian or Japanese style, teaching in Russian or Japanese, which has made Harbin Institute of technology have distinctive international characteristics since its establishment.

From 1920 to the last batch of Russian students, 1938 graduates were graduated from the Harbin Institute of technology in 1920. Among them, 1267 were graduates, 382 of whom were Chinese mainland students, 885 from the Soviet Union and Poland. The graduates were distributed in mainland China, Taiwan, Poland, the Soviet Union, Australia, Poland, the United States, Canada, New Zealand and Brazil. They generally accepted the educational system in the early years of the West and acquired the advanced scientific and technological knowledge of Europe at that time. His diploma was recognized by the European countries of the Soviet Union. In the 30 years before liberation, Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) trained many famous scholars in the field of science and technology education, and some became social activists.

golden age

In 1949, Harbin Institute of technology began to recruit graduate students from all over the country. It is one of the earliest institutions to train graduate students in China.

On June 7, 1950, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China telegraphed to the Northeast Bureau: "the China Changsha railway has decided to hand over Harbin Institute of technology to the Chinese government for management.". It also instructs that Harbin Institute of technology "should focus on recruiting lecturers, teaching assistants and graduate students from colleges of science and technology of universities in China.". He majored in Russian and was assigned to teach in various universities after two years. This is an important sign that Harbin Institute of technology has returned to the embrace of new China and entered the stage of comprehensive transformation and expansion. Later, the school decided to commemorate the founding of Harbin Institute of technology on June 7.

In 1951, Harbin Institute of technology was identified as one of the two institutions for China's higher education to learn from the Soviet Union. It has become a base for learning from the Soviet Union's advanced experience and training excellent talents for China's domestic colleges and universities. It is known as the "cradle of engineers" all over the country. From July 1951 to June 1956, Harbin Institute of technology held five reports on teaching methods and science and technology, and two national mechanical and electrical conferences entrusted by the Ministry of higher education. Each time, dozens of brother universities attended. Harbin Institute of technology became a window for national universities to learn from the Soviet Union's educational experience.

In 1952, the educational system of Harbin Institute of technology was changed to five years. Engineering training was strengthened to enable students to undertake engineering and technical tasks independently. Graduates were awarded "engineer's degree certificate", which made Harbin Institute of technology famous as "cradle of engineers" in the 1950s.

From the 1950s to the mid-1960s, under the leadership of Feng zhongyun, Li Chang, Chen Kangbai and high-speed railway, Harbin Institute of technology entered the stage of great construction, great development and great improvement on the basis of reconstruction and expansion, and trained tens of thousands of students for the country.

During this period, the enrollment scale of the university continued to expand, with more than 8000 students at the most, and the number of teachers increased rapidly. In 1957, the number of teachers increased to more than 800, with an average age of 27.5. They undertook all the teaching and scientific research tasks, and were known as the "eight hundred heroes" of Harbin Institute of technology. The scientific research work has been greatly developed and improved, and various majors have established fixed relationships with some factories and research institutes Science and technology collaboration. In order to run Harbin Institute of technology well, after liberation, a group of young and experienced leading cadres were sent to Harbin Institute of technology as leaders; a group of professors with advanced academic attainments were recruited or transferred to Harbin Institute of technology; 67 Soviet experts and 3 Czech experts were successively employed to Harbin Institute of Technology to help the University build a profession urgently needed by the country, train teachers and students; and a group of advanced equipment The equipment was transported back from the Soviet Union, making the laboratories and practice factories of Harbin Institute of technology jump to the forefront of the country.

In October 1954, the Ministry of higher education first identified six universities as national key universities, and Harbin Institute of technology became the only key university outside Beijing.

In 1957, Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) has developed into a new multi-disciplinary Industrial University with 7 departments and 23 majors, which has basically become a new type of learning from the Soviet Union's teaching system.

In 1958, according to Comrade Deng Xiaoping's instruction that "Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) should engage in cutting-edge work" and the needs of the development of the situation at that time, hit made a major adjustment to the specialty setting and created a number of cutting-edge specialties. By 1962, it had basically completed the transformation from civilian to military, formed a professional system with complete categories and complementary disciplines, and became a multi-disciplinary university serving national defense science and technology and national economic construction Learning.

In 1960, the school cooperated with 107 factories in Harbin to complete more than 460 mechanical automation projects in the process of technological innovation and technological revolution.

Ten years of turmoil

The Cultural Revolution started in 1966 seriously damaged the normal teaching and scientific research order of Harbin Institute of technology.

In the spring of 1970, according to the instructions of the higher authorities, a small number of personnel and most of the materials of Harbin Institute of technology moved south to Chongqing and merged with the second Department of Harbin military industry to establish Chongqing University of technology; the part studying in Kazakhstan merged with Heilongjiang Institute of technology and Harbin Institute of electrical engineering to form a new Harbin Institute of technology.

In August 1973, the State Council and the Central Military Commission decided to return Chongqing University of technology to the north and restore the former Harbin University of technology. After several setbacks, the school was seriously damaged.

Recast brilliance

In 1977, undergraduate enrollment was resumed; in 1978, postgraduate enrollment was resumed; in 1982, doctoral enrollment began.

In 1984, it was once again listed as one of the 15 key universities in China. In the same year, it became one of the first batch of 22 universities to set up graduate schools in China, marking that the graduate education of Harbin Institute of technology has entered a new stage of development.

In 1996, it became one of the first universities to enter the "211 Project" construction.

In 1999, the beet sugar Research Institute of the former Ministry of light industry (founded in 1956) was incorporated into Harbin Institute of technology.

In May 1999, he was awarded the "May 1 Labor Award" by the general assembly of the people's Republic of China.

In November 1999, it was selected into the "985 Project" and became one of the nine key universities built by the state according to the goal of world-famous high-level universities. On the 14th, the science, technology and Industry Commission for national defense, the Ministry of education and the Heilongjiang Provincial Government jointly signed an agreement on the key construction of Harbin Institute of technology.

In June 2000, Harbin Institute of technology merged with Harbin Institute of Architecture (a key university of the Ministry of construction and the first batch of doctoral degree awarding units in China) to form a new Harbin Institute of technology.

In 2001, the first batch of national demonstration software colleges were approved.

In 2002, with the approval of the Ministry of education, the Shenzhen Graduate School of Harbin Institute of technology was established. In the same year, the Weihai Branch of Harbin Institute of technology was officially renamed as Harbin Institute of Technology (Weihai).

In 2007, it became one of the first batch of Pilot Universities in the reform of postgraduate training mechanism. In the same year, it became one of the first ten universities jointly implemented by the Ministry of education and the Chinese Academy of engineering.

In 2011, the school was selected into the Ministry of education's "experimental program for training top students in basic subjects" (hereinafter referred to as "Everest program").
