Southwest Jiaotong University is a national key university directly under the Ministry of Education. It is one of the first batch of national key construction universities for "Double First-Class", "211 Project", "985 Project Advantageous Discipline Innovation Platform" and "2011 Collaborative Innovation Plan". It has a graduate school. It is located in Chengdu, a famous historical and cultural city in China, a national central city, and the core city of the "Chengdu-Chongqing Twin Cities Economic Circle". The school was founded in Shanhaiguan in 1896 and was originally called "Imperial Chinese Railway College". It is China's first higher education institution for engineering education and the birthplace of higher education in civil engineering, mining and metallurgy engineering, and transportation engineering in China. It was also founded in 1921 One of the earliest sources for the first establishment of "Jiaotong University" in China. Since the founding of the school, the school has moved to different locations and changed its name several times. It has successively become Tangshan Road and Mine School, Tangshan Industrial College, Tangshan School of Jiaotong University, Tangshan University of the Ministry of Communications, Tangshan Jiaotong University, National Tangshan Institute of Technology, and China Jiaotong University Tangshan Institute of Technology. College, Northern Jiaotong University Tangshan Institute of Technology, etc. The school is well-known at home and abroad as "Tangshan Jiaotong University" and "Tangyuan". Chairman Mao Zedong inscribed the name of Northern Jiaotong University. In 1952, due to the restructuring of colleges and universities across the country, the school was renamed Tangshan Railway University. A large number of departments and organizations with high reputation in the country were transferred to Tsinghua University, Tianjin University, University of Science and Technology Beijing and other sister institutions. In 1964, in active response to the call of the Party Central Committee to build the "Big Third Line", the Ministry of Railways decided to move the school to Emei, Sichuan. In 1972, it was renamed Southwest Jiaotong University. In 1989, the main body of the school moved to the Jiuli Campus in Chengdu. In 2002, a new campus was expanded in Xipu, Chengdu. In 2020, we will cooperate with Chengdu City to build the Eastern (International) Campus of Chengdu. There are currently four campuses in Chengdu: Jiuli, Xipu, Dongfang (International) and Emei, covering a total area of more than 5,000 acres. During its 127 years of operation, the school has always shared the same destiny with the Chinese nation. It has witnessed and participated in the glorious history of the Chinese nation’s perseverance and continuous progress, and has formed the Jiaotong University spirit of “contributing to the country through hard work and continuous self-improvement” and “rigorous scholarship”. The tradition of running a school with strict requirements and the spirit of the school motto of "Study diligently, be diligent in inspiration, act with perseverance, and serve with loyalty and tolerance" have cultivated and created more than 300,000 students represented by Mao Yisheng, Zhu Kezhen, Lin Tongyan, Huang Wanli, etc. Among its teachers and students, it has produced 3 pioneers of the "two bombs and one satellite", 65 academicians at home and abroad, and 38 national engineering survey and design masters. Since the reform and opening up, it has trained more than 10 academicians of the two academies in the field of rail transit in China.
