Introduction of HUST and MSE

Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) is a comprehensive research university located in Wuhan, China under the direct supervision of the Ministry of Education. It is a participant university of the former “985” Project in China, and also one of the first universities approved under the national "Double First-Class" Initiative, China’s “Excellence Initiative” for institutions of higher education. HUST boasts a full range of academic disciplines, comprising 10 major categories that range from engineering and medicine – HUST’s two most notable pillars of strength – to its fast-growing science and distinctive liberal arts disciplines.

As one of the largest and the most prestigious schools of HUST, the School of Mechanical Science and Engineering (MSE) attracts a large number of renowned experts and scholars in the field of mechanical manufacturing both at home and abroad, forming its distinctive discipline advantages. MSE now has 7 departments, and among its over 220 faculties, there are 7 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences/Engineering, 1 Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering, over 50 faculties with state-level talent titles and 40 with provincial-level titles. It has 6 state-level research platforms, 1 NSFC innovation group, 2 national teaching groups and 1 innovation group of Ministry of Education.

Over the past 10 years, MSE has undertaken more than 1000 scientific research projects for the nation and enterprises, with its scientific research funds ranked among the top of all HUST schools. MSE has won over 50 national-level prizes for scientific research, teaching and excellent textbooks, etc., and more than 100 provincial-level prizes for science and technology. It has been granted over 700 national invention patents and utility model patents, and its 6 courses were selected as national excellent courses. In 2012, MSE first-level discipline “Mechanical Engineering” tied for the first place in the third round discipline evaluation organized by the Ministry of Education. In 2016, it ranked A+ in the fourth round discipline evaluation nationwide. What’s more, the State Key Laboratory of Digital Manufacturing Equipment and Technology were consecutively evaluated as “Excellent” in the 2013 and 2018 State Key Laboratories Evaluation.
