The history of the school can be traced back to the Department of Mining and Metallurgy of the School of Engineering of Beiyang University, which was established in 1895. In 1938, it was moved to the Department of Mining and Metallurgy of Northwest Institute of Technology. In 1957, it was merged into Xi'an Jiaotong University. The School of Mining was one of only two 5-year undergraduate colleges under the former Ministry of Coal Industry. In 1998, the school implemented "co-construction between the central and local governments, with local management as the mainstay" and was transferred to Shaanxi Province. In 1999, it was renamed Xi’an University of Science and Technology, and in 2003 it was renamed Xi’an University of Science and Technology.
