The University of Chinese Academy of Sciences ("National University of Science and Technology" for short) is an innovative university with the motto of "being knowledgeable, ethical and moral" and featuring the integration of science and education.


The predecessor of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences was the Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It was established in 1978 and was the first graduate school approved by the Party Central Committee and the State Council. It trained the first doctor of science, the first doctor of engineering, and the first female doctor of New China. , The first dual-degree Ph.D. In June 2012, the Ministry of Education approved the rename of the Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. In 2014, the National University of Science and Technology began to recruit undergraduates, forming a higher education system covering three levels of undergraduate, master, and Ph.D.


As of December 2017, the National University of Science and Technology has more than 3,000 full-time teachers, including 153 academicians of the two academies, and 460 winners of the National Outstanding Youth Science Fund; each postgraduate training unit has 10170 postgraduate instructors, including 238 academicians of the two academies There are more than 6000 doctoral supervisors.


As of December 2017, the National University of Science and Technology has 1,447 undergraduate students; 47,000 postgraduate students, of which doctoral students account for 52%. The number of doctoral students ranks first in the country, and doctoral students account for one-third of the country; foreign students are studying There are 1,571 people from 91 countries, including 1,011 foreign doctoral students.
