Graduate Education

 

 In 2011, the first-level master's degree in chemistry was approved at Taiyuan University of  Techhnology. In 2016, Chemistry entered the top 1% of ESI in the world, which is an important supporting discipline of chemical engineering and technology in the national "double-first-class" construction disciplines. In chemistry discipline, there are 38 full-time teachers, 11 full professors, 11 associate professors, 32 teachers with Ph.D. degrees, 5 doctoral supervisors, 14 master tutors, more than 10 talented people at provincial and ministerial levels, 1 famous teacher in Shanxi Province, and 3 scientific and technological innovation teams in Shanxi Province.


 During the evaluation period and led by the "energy revolution leader" strategy of Shanxi Province, the chemistry discipline actively optimized its layout, focused on energy and the environment coordinated development, combined closely with the national major needs for clean and efficient utilization of coal, resulting in the formation of three distinctive research direction including coal based synthetic chemistry, green catalysis and energy chemistry, as well as pollution control and environmental chemistry. The discipline now has the Collaborative Innovation Center of Coalbed Methane Efficient Exploitation and Utilization (Class A), Shanxi Coal Conversion Engineering Technology Research Center, Shanxi Engineering Research Center of Clean Fuel for Civil Use, Shanxi Coal Chemical Engineering Graduate Education Innovation Center,Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center of Fundamental Chemistry of Shanxi Province and other important experimental practice supporting platforms. Moreover, the discipline is equipped with X-ray electron spectrometer, field emission transmission electron microscope, in situ variable vacuum field emission scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer, as well as other large research instruments and equipments.


 During the evaluation period, the discipline has undertaken 10 national projects, more than 40

 provincial and ministerial projects, published more than 200 high-level academic papers, and authorized more than 50 Chinese invention patents. Furthermore, the discipline has won 1 first prize and 1 second prize of Shanxi Provincial Science and Technology Achievements, approved 1 national first-class undergraduate course and 3 provincial quality shared courses, published 3 textbooks for the 13th Five-Year Plan of general higher education, and granted more than 10 educational reform projects in Shanxi Province. The discipline has cultivated nearly 200 postgraduate students and over 400 undergraduate students, and 5 of them have been awarded the "Excellent Graduate Thesis" of Shanxi Province. In addition, we have won more than 20 awards in science and technology competitions at provincial and ministerial level and above, and more than 30 innovation and entrepreneurship projects. Our graduates have received high recognition from their employers, good overall evaluation from the society, and have therefore accumulated a good social reputation.
