East China University of Technology (ECUT; simplified Chinese: 东华理工大学; traditional Chinese: 東華理工大學; pinyin: Dōnghuá Lǐgōng Dàxué), founded in 1956, is the first university in China's nuclear industry. It was jointly built by the People's Government of Jiangxi Province, the State Administration of National Defense Science, Technology and Industry, the Ministry of Natural Resources, and the China Nuclear Industry Corporation, related to geoscience and nuclear science. ECUT is the pilot university of the Outstanding Engineer Education and Training Program of the the Ministry of Education, the 111 Program of the Ministry of Education, the Basic Capacity Building Project of Colleges and Universities in the Central and Western regions to support universities, and the New Engineering research and practice projects to be selected in colleges and universities.[1]

History

East China University of Technology (ECUT), originally established in 1956 in Shanxi Province, has enjoyed over 60 years of repute in the academic world. It started as Taigu Geological School, belonging to State Second Mechanic Industry, a state defense institution. In 1958, ECUT moved to Fuzhou, Jiangxi Province, due to the abundant uranium deposits. Presently ECUT is jointly run by the Jiangxi Government and State Commission of Science and Technology for National Defense Industry (SCST), the Ministry of Land and Resources (MLR), and China National Nuclear Corporation.

Since the establishment of ECUT, it has focused its education in the fields of nuclear science and geoscience. It has expanded its teaching and research fields to engineering, science, language, economy and arts, with one doctoral program, 71 master programs and 68 bachelor programs. Most of the aforementioned disciplines are connected to the traditional fields at ECUT, forming more than 20 schools and research centers.[2]
