Introduction to the College of Environmental Science and Engineering

The discipline of the College of Environmental Science and Engineering (CESE) consists of environmental engineering major and water supply and drainage of the science and engineering major. The environmental engineering major as one of the characteristic discipline in Shanxi Province was established in 1984 and qualified by the China Engineering Education Accreditation Association (CEEAA) in 2018, and in 2019 its development was targeted as the national’s first-class major. The major of water supply and drainage science and engineering was founded in 1957, and enrolled its first undergraduates in 1958. This major belongs to one of the “old eight universities” which famous in the civil engineering. It honors with preponderant subject in Shanxi higher education bureau. The water supply and drainage of the science and engineering major has passed specialty evaluation in the Higher Education of The Ministry of Housing And Urban-Rural Development in 2013 and 2018, and was selected as the national first-class undergraduate major in 2019.

The discipline of the College of Environmental Science and Engineering, which is the major construction discipline of the Shanxi province, can grant both the doctoral degree and master degree in environmental science and engineering, and master degree on civil engineering. With the establishment of post-doctorate R&D base, the whole system of training the talent from bachelor, master, doctor, and post-doctor is completed. Relying on the Shanxi Province Industrial and Urban Wastewater Treatment Engineering Technology Research Center, Shanxi Province Sludge Disposal and Resource Recovery Engineering Technology Research Center, Shanxi Province Municipal Engineering Graduate Education Innovation Center and other platform, more than 30 practicing and training places have been built and more than 40 high-level experts from enterprises and industries were invited as supervisors.

Currently, the school has a staff of 85 people, including 70 faculty members (16 professors, 27 associate professors and 27 lecturer), 8 doctoral supervisors, and 46 master graduate supervisors. More than 97% faculties were granted as doctoral degree, and over half of the faculties have the experience of studying abroad or graduated from the overseas universities. At of the end of 2019, the number of the undergraduates, master candidate, doctor student, postdoctoral students in the college are 516, 237, 17, 13, separately.

Focusing on the frontier of the domestic and overseas research, combining with the concept of the “lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets” in the construction of the ecological civilization, standing on the concept of Shanxi province about “Construction of first class in energy revolution”, promoting the shift to the low-carbon and clean energy system of local economic, the research fields of CESE include the water control and municipal water distribution system, reduction and treatment of air pollutants, environmental chemistry and material science, solid waste treatment and disposal, watershed pollution control and ecological restoration. The comprehensive system comprising technology research and development, pilot experiments, engineering demonstrations, and promotion and application system, can support the talent training and meet the social needs. Up to now since 2016, 108 research foundations have been granted, with 12 projects granted by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, 88 projects supported by the province or the ministry. About 16.85 million RMB foundation from the industry have supported 98 projects. Approximately 500 researches have been highly valued through peer-review, with 25% research published in SCI-indexed journals and 5% study published in EI-indexed journals. Further, we have more than 50 authorized patents and 20 textbooks and monographs. These scientific and technological achievement have been accepted by both the science and the industrial.
