School of Civil Engineering






Brief Introduction

The history of the School of Civil Engineering can be traced back to Tongji Medical and Engineering School founded in 1915. Over the past nine decades, more than 20,000 talents have been produced for the society at the School. Up to now, a three-level personnel training system geared to bachelor, master and doctor cultivation has been formed.

This School boasts a total of 104 teachers and staff. There are 29 professors totally now, including one academician, one "Thousand Talent Plan Scholar", one " Abroad Thousand Talent Plan Scholar", one "Yangtze River Scholar", one "Distinguished Young Scientist", one "Middle-aged and Young Experts with Outstanding Contributions at the Provincial or Ministerial Level", and one "Famous Teachers in Jiangsu Province".

About 2,000 undergraduates and 800 postgraduates are studying at this School now. Eight awards were granted at or above the provincial or ministerial level. Structural Engineering is among the key disciplines at the Provincial or Ministerial Level; the Civil Engineering and Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Laboratory is a Jiangsu provincial key laboratory. The Civil Engineering Specialty has national construction work supervision. The School attaches great importance to talents cultivation based on the principle of applying knowledge, enhancing ability and promoting innovation, with the emphasis on furthering its reform and developing comprehensive capability and competitiveness in engineering design, practice and innovation.

Since 2002, it has won more than 30 awards for its achievements in teaching at the national level and at the provincial or ministerial level, in elite courses, in elite teaching materials, and in excellent thesis design for graduation. In addition, its students successively achieved excellent results in School Student Structural Design Innovation Competition of Jiangsu Province, of East China, and of China. Now the Civil Engineering program has been developed into National First-class Undergraduate Major and Outstanding Specialty in Jiangsu Province.

The School highly values scientific research and discipline construction. It combines scientific research and talents cultivation, and has established several research institutes and engineering research centers. Since 2002, the College has undertaken more than 40 National Natural Science Foundation projects. Furthermore, it won one national award as well as some provincial or ministerial awards for scientific and technological advance.
