Kunming University of Science and Technology was founded on September 1, 1954, under the name "Kunming Institute of Technology". It was renamed "Kunming University of Science and Technology" in 1995. In 1999, the original Kunming University of Science and Technology merged with the original Yunnan University of Technology to form a new Kunming University of Science and Technology. The school has been under the management of the former Ministry of Higher Education, the former Ministry of Metallurgical Industry, and the former China Nonferrous Metals Industry Corporation. It currently has four campuses, Chenggong, Lianhua, Xinying, and Songming, covering an area of 3,915 acres (excluding Songming campus). , the main campus is Chenggong Campus, located in Chenggong University Town, Kunming City. After 70 years of development, the school has now become a comprehensive university with a focus on engineering, a combination of science and engineering, distinctive industry and regional characteristics, and coordinated development of multiple disciplines. It is the largest key university in Yunnan Province with complete levels and categories of education. It plays an important role in China's nonferrous metal industry and regional economic and social development. A large number of scientific and technological innovation talents and important scientific and technological achievements have emerged that are well-known throughout the country and even the world. Among them, Professor Qu Weide pioneered the "impact shock absorption principle" and applied it to the development of China's first artificial earth satellite; Professor Li Mengeng invented the "coarse tin electrothermal continuous crystallization" "Machine Lead and Bismuth Removal Process and Equipment" is hailed by the Western metallurgical community as "the greatest invention of tin metallurgy in the 20th century". Together with the "Solder Vacuum Separation of Lead and Tin Technology" invented by Professor Dai Yongnian, it constitutes the modern pyrotechnic tin refining technology. Promoted to tin smelting plants around the world; Professor Liu Beichen invented the world's first inverted arch steel cable bridge. At the same time, the "internally heated multi-stage continuous vacuum distillation metal separation technology" invented by the school leads the world, the "large-scale, continuous and automated microwave metallurgical reaction device" realizes independent innovation of 10,000-ton complete sets of equipment, and the "top blow smelting-flash smelting" -The innovative technology system for nickel smelting linked to the three-furnace autothermal smelting system is the first in the world. The new technology and new equipment for vacuum distillation of complex tin alloys have developed the world's tin refining level to a new height. The key technology of vacuum vaporization separation of precious metal alloys has established a new A generation of green and efficient precious metal extraction technology, primate targeted gene editing technology has been evaluated as a landmark work in human disease model research... and has made important contributions to the scientific and technological progress of the country and the world. On January 21, 2015, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in an important speech during his inspection of Yunnan: “Yunnan has relatively rich scientific and educational resources, including nationally renowned universities like Kunming University of Science and Technology, and high-level research institutions like the Kunming Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. There are also many provincial-level scientific research institutes. We must make good use of these conditions to find a solid path to innovation-driven development, and insist on combining training and introduction to make up for the shortcomings of Yunnan's lack of innovative talents. ” This is not only a high honor given by the General Secretary to all “Kunming workers”, but also the development direction pointed out by the General Secretary for the school.
