Hohai University
Introduction to Hohai University
Hohai University (website) is a national key university with a history of more than 100 years, featuring water conservancy, engineering, and multidisciplinary development. It is the key construction of the national “211 Project” and the construction of an innovation platform for national superior disciplines. First-class discipline construction and the establishment of graduate schools. For more than 100 years, the school has grown stronger and stronger in the struggle of water management and prosperity. It has been hailed as “the cradle of water conservancy high-level innovation and entrepreneurship training and an important base for water conservancy technology innovation”. The school has Xikang Road Campus, Jiangning Campus and Changzhou Campus in Nanjing and Changzhou, covering an area of 2,462 mu.
Hohai University, in 1924, merged with Southeast University to establish Hehai University of Technology. In 1927, it was merged into the fourth Zhongshan University, and later renamed as Central University and Nanjing University. In 1952, the Department of Water Resources of Nanjing University, the Department of Water Resources of Jiaotong University, Tongji University, Zhejiang University, and the East China Water Conservancy College formed the East China Water Conservancy College. Qian Zhengying was the first dean. In 1960, the school was recognized as a national key university by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. In 1985, the traditional school name “Hehai University” was resumed. Comrade Deng Xiaoping personally wrote the name of the school.

Hohai University is one of the first universities in the country to grant bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees. The two disciplines of water conservancy engineering, environmental science and engineering are shortlisted for the first-class discipline construction. The five disciplines of engineering, environment/ecology, computer science, materials science, and earth science entered the top 1% of the ESI world. In the fourth round of national assessment, the water conservancy engineering discipline was awarded A+ with excellent results; the civil engineering and environmental science and engineering disciplines ranked A, ranking among the top 10% in the country; Marxist theory, management science and engineering, industry and commerce The management of 3 disciplines was rated B+, ranking the top 20% in the country. It has one first-level national key discipline (water conservancy project), seven second-level national key disciplines, two second-level national key disciplines, 15 first-level provincial key disciplines, and 15 post-doctoral mobile stations. There are 41 degree-granting points covering 9 disciplines including philosophy, economics, law, education, literature, science, engineering, agriculture, and management. Among them, 16 first-level doctoral degree authorization points, 37 first-level The master’s degree authorization point (including the first-level doctoral coverage point) and the four second-level discipline master’s degree authorization points (excluding the first-level subject coverage point). 19 master’s degree programs authorized points; 58 undergraduate majors.
Hohai University adheres to a pragmatic and educational tradition and has trained more than 250,000 graduates. When Premier Wen Jiabao inspected the school in 2005, he pointed out that “the technical backbone of the water conservancy fronts and hydropower fronts across the country, many of whom are students of Hohai University. The development of water conservancy and hydropower in New China is a large number of talents transported here. Inseparable.” The school has always adhered to the basic position of undergraduate teaching, vigorously promoted the undergraduate teaching project, won 10 national teaching achievement awards, 73 provincial teaching achievement awards, and built 3 national experimental teaching demonstration centers, and the national virtual simulation experiment teaching center 1 There are 3 national-level comprehensive reform pilot projects, 5 national-level outstanding engineer education and training programs, 4 national engineering practice education centers, 13 national specialty construction points, and 9 national quality video open classes. National Excellent Resource Sharing Class 12. Over the years, the employment rate of graduates has remained above 96%. In 2005, the Ministry of Education passed the assessment of the undergraduate teaching level with excellent results. The scale of postgraduate education has developed rapidly, the reform of the talent training model has continued to deepen, the quality of training has continued to improve, and the comprehensive reform of professional degree graduates has been at the forefront of the country.
Hohai University plays a multi-disciplinary comprehensive advantage, facing key technical issues of major national projects, strengthening scientific research features and improving integrated innovation capabilities, promoting collaborative innovation, and serving the country’s economic construction and social development. The school has the State Key Laboratory of Hydrology, Water Resources and Hydraulic Engineering and the National Engineering Research Center for Water Resources Efficient Utilization and Engineering Safety, 9 national and provincial key laboratories, and 18 national and provincial engineering research centers ( Engineering Technology Research Center), six high-level academic innovation bases.
