- The Wuhan University of Technology (hereafter referred to as WUT) was merged on May 27th, 2000, from the former Wuhan University of Technology (established in 1948), Wuhan Transportation University (established in 1946), and Wuhan Automotive Polytechnic University (established in 1958). WUT is also jointly constructed by the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Transport, the State Oceanic Administration, and the State Administration of Science, Technology, and Industry for National Defense. In the past 70 years, WUT has fostered over 500,000 engineers and technicians, maintaining itself an enormous scale university under the direct administration of the Ministry of Education for nurturing talents oriented in the three industrial sectors: building materials industry, transportation industry, and automobile industry and retaining itself an essential base of nurturing high-level talents for the three industrial sectors as well as providing significant scientific and technological achievements. With the practice of long-term student's education, WUT has formed an educational ideology system with distinctive characteristics: focusing on the lofty ideal of building an excellent university to win worldwide recognition and admiration, the University has forged the spirit of "Sound in Morality, Broad in Learning and Pursuing Excellence," promoted the guiding principle of "take the students cultivation as our essence, and take academic development as our priority," and exercised the educational concept of "implementing excellent education, nurturing excellent talents and creating an excellent life." WUT owns 35 innovative research centers with leading international level including two State Key Laboratories, one State Engineering Laboratory, one National Engineering Research Center, and ministerial or provincial level laboratories in the areas of new materials and building materials, transportation and logistics, mechatronics, and automobile, information technology, new energy, resources, and environmental technology as well as Public Safety and Emergency Management. Meanwhile, the University has established 199 Joint Research Centers with local governments and enterprises. From 2010, WUT has obtained 14 National Science and Technology Awards, ranking in the forefront of Chinese higher education institutions. In 2016, the University was listed in Times Higher Education World University Rankings, QS Asia University Rankings, U.S. News Best Global Universities Rankings, and Shanghai Ranking's Academic Ranking of World Universities. WUT has been persistent in carrying out its four development strategies: promoting individuality, harmony, internationalization, and innovation. In particular, the University has attached great importance to the improvement of the international atmosphere on campus. WUT has established programs with over 100 universities and research institutes worldwide. Furthermore, the University has invited distinguished scholars from all over the world to hold a lecture and has made more than 200 guest or honorary professors. WUT will adhere to the principle of "Educating People First and Prioritizing Academic Advancements" and carry out the motto of "Sound in Morality, Broad in Learning and Pursuing Excellence". We believe that with our faculty and students' joint efforts, together with the support from all the members of our community, WUT will strive to achieve great successes with unity, determination, dedication, and innovation. In this way, we will compose a new beautiful chapter in the history of the University, one in which WUT will be transformed into an open, multi-disciplinary, and research-oriented university with its distinct characteristics. We aim to become a first-class university in China and be an internationally renowned institution in specific disciplines. View full university
- Wuhan University (WHU) is a comprehensive and critical national university directly under the Ministry of Education administration. The history of Wuhan University can be traced back to the Ziqiang Institute, founded in 1893 by Zhang Zhidong, the then governor of Hubei Province and Hunan Province in the late Qing Dynasty. In development and evolution, the institute changed its name several times before it was finally named Wuhan National University in 1928. It is one of the earliest comprehensive national universities in modern China. By the end of 1946, the university had established six colleges, the colleges of liberal art, law, sciences, engineering, agriculture, and medicine. In 2000, an amalgamation of the former Wuhan University, Wuhan University of Hydraulic and Electric Engineering, Wuhan Technical University of Surveying and Mapping, and Hubei Medical University was announced in a new era in its 100-odd years of development. For the past century, Wuhan University has built an elegant palatial architectural complex of primitive simplicity that blends perfectly the eastern architectural style with that of the west. It is honored as the "Most Beautiful University in China." Furthermore, Wuhan University's centennial humanistic accumulation boils down to its succinct motto, that is, "Self-improvement, Perseverance, Truth-seeking & Innovation."
