History The predecessor of the school can be traced back to the Shanhaiguan Beiyang Railway Official School established in 1896 and the Beijing Railway Management Institute established in 1909. In 1958, the Ministry of Railways decided to establish my country's third railway undergraduate college in Lanzhou - Lanzhou Railway College. The 5 departments of railway transportation, railway motors, railway construction, railway bridges and tunnels, and railway machinery offer 7 undergraduate majors and 5 junior college majors, which are provided by Beijing Railway Institute (Beijing Railway Management Institute, now Beijing Jiaotong University) and Tangshan Railway Institute ( That is, the Shanhaiguan Beiyang Railway Official School (now Southwest Jiaotong University) moved to Lanzhou as an official institution. More than 340 experts and scholars from the Beijing and Tang Dynasties, represented by Lin Damei, Shen Zhiyang, Hu Chunnong, Sun Qiyin, and Zhang Dianzhi, came to Lanzhou to teach. , successfully enrolled 446 new students that year. In the 1960s, a group of PhD students and postgraduate students in science and technology who studied in the Soviet Union were recruited to enrich the teaching team. The older generation of educators led students from all over the world to build the school and love the school with their persistence and dedication in the harsh environment of the northwest. , the wisdom and emotion of Rong School opened the first six years of Lanzhou Jiaotong University.
