About Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT)
Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) was founded in 1920. From its beginning, HIT has received preferential support from the central government. In 1954, the Ministry of Higher Education designated, for the first time, six national key universities.
HIT was the only one of the six outside of Beijing. In 1984, HIT again found its way onto the list of 15 national key universities to receive special support. In 1996, HIT was among the first group of universities to be included in Project 211. In 1999, HIT was listed as one of the top nine key universities in China.
This distinction provided HIT with the opportunity to develop into a highly-competitive first-rate university with the assistance of the Ministry of Education and the Heilongjiang Provincial Government.
HIT is consistently on the forefront in making innovations in research. For years, Harbin Institute of Technology has continued to undertake large-scale and highly sophisticated national projects.
HIT has been making great contributions to China’s hi-tech research by creating many new inventions in scientific research fields. The micro-satellite ‘Testing Satellite No.1’, constructed mainly by HIT, was the first fully developed and launched satellite by a Chinese university.
The technical advancements on the satellite meet international aerospace standards and mark a new chapter in the history of HIT and China’s history of astronautics.
HIT is famous for its original style of schooling: ‘Being strict in qualifications for graduates; making every endeavor in educating students.’ Harbin Institute of Technology graduates have been warmly welcomed by employers throughout China.
Harbin Institute of Technology has remained an international university since its foundation. Courses at HIT used to be conducted exclusively in Russian and Japanese. After the reforming and opening to the outside world, HIT has gained greater weight in the world.
So far, HIT has signed academic cooperation agreements with 126 institutions of higher education in 24 countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Japan and Russia. Cooperation and exchanges are carried out between HIT and these universities though exchanging students, faculty and research staff, holding academic conference and cooperating in scientific research.
