China University of Mining and Technology

Founded in 1909, China University of Mining and Technology (CUMT) is a comprehensive key national university directly administered by the Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China, and is one of the first universities to be listed in the national “211 Project Universities” and the “985 Innovation Platform for Advantageous Disciplines”. In 2017, with an important international academic influence in the field of mining engineering, the Mining Engineering discipline and the Safety Engineering discipline of CUMT were selected into the National Double First-Class Construction Disciplines. Since its founding in 1909, CUMT has gone through more than a hundred years of hardships. After 14 re-locations and 12 re-names, though it has been displaced and subjected to endless difficulties, it persists in spreading its brightness and intoning its songs from generation to generation. As the only high-level university in the country named after mining industry, through long-term development and construction, it has formed a multi-disciplinary structure with engineering as its mainstay, mining as its characteristic, coordinated with the development of science, engineering, management and liberal arts. It has formed advantageous brands and distinctive features in the fields of energy exploration and utilization, resources, environment and production, as well as other related disciplines like mining construction, safety engineering, surveying, machinery, information technology, ecological restoration, and management engineering.
