College of Food Science and Engineering
The School of Food Science and Engineering at Tianjin University of Science and Technology is located in Binhai New Area, Tianjin, adjacent to Binhai Zhongguancun Science and Technology Park and the International Medical Research Institute. It has built a good platform to assist the college in talent cultivation, technology transfer, innovation and entrepreneurship development.
The college was founded in 1958 and is one of the earliest departments in China to establish the discipline of food science and engineering. We have doctoral degree authorization points and master's degree authorization points in the first level disciplines of food science and engineering, public health and preventive medicine, biomedicine, two professional master's degree authorization points, and a postdoctoral flow station. Our undergraduate program includes three undergraduate majors: food science and engineering, food quality and safety, and food nutrition and health, with two national first-class majors. We have passed the national engineering education certification four times in a row and the US IFT certification twice. Currently, we have 1144 undergraduate students and 1646 graduate students.
Discipline construction
The college will be led by the development of disciplines, among which food science and engineering will receive key support and be selected as a priority development discipline by the Ministry of Education, a first-class discipline in Tianjin, a "top priority" construction discipline in Tianjin, a top discipline cultivation plan for Tianjin universities, and a core discipline of Tianjin's service industry characteristic discipline group. In the fourth and fifth rounds of subject evaluation, the overall level of this discipline ranked B+. The food discipline ranks 27th in the "World Class Ranking of Soft Science" and 38th in the U.S. NEWS World University Food Discipline Evaluation. The articles published in this discipline rank first in terms of citation contribution, and among the top 20 authors with high output and influence, 15 of them are teachers in the discipline of the college.
Faculty strength
The college continues to deepen the reform of the teacher personnel system and has built a high-level faculty team with diverse academic backgrounds and reasonable hierarchical levels. There are currently 151 teaching staff and 116 full-time teachers, including 36 professors and 55 associate professors. More than 90% of teachers have a doctoral degree, and over 80% of teachers have experience studying, working, and exchanging abroad. Having 17 national level talents; 43 provincial and ministerial level talents, including Tianjin Distinguished Professors and Tianjin Teaching Masters. Six teachers were selected as the top 2% of global scientists. This has laid a solid foundation for the cultivation of high-level talents and scientific research.
Personnel Training
The college adheres to student-centered approach, fully implements the fundamental task of cultivating morality and talents, actively promotes quality engineering construction and educational reform, and has achieved significant results. In recent years, teachers and students of the college have made remarkable achievements in various innovation and entrepreneurship competitions. Students have won more than 100 national, provincial and ministerial awards in the "Challenge Cup", "Internet plus" and other competitions. They have won one national gold award and one silver award in the first National Postdoctoral Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition. Hundreds of papers have been published in internationally renowned journals. Outstanding graduate students such as the star of self-improvement of Chinese college students, 100 graduate student party members in national colleges and universities, the winner of the May 4th Youth Medal in Tianjin, and the person of the year and pacesetter of Tianjin college students who moved the campus have emerged.
Scientific Research
The college is the backbone of the industry, improves the level of serving the national economy and the people's livelihood, and has established six national teaching and research platforms, including the State Key Laboratory for food nutrition and safety, the national experimental teaching demonstration center for food science, and the international scientific and technological cooperation base for food nutrition and safety and pharmaceutical chemistry; 19 provincial and ministerial level scientific research and teaching platforms, including the Food Biotechnology Engineering Research Center of the Ministry of Education, Tianjin Key Laboratory of Food Quality and Health, and the Demonstration Center for Quality and Safety Testing Technology of Food Enterprises of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology; Establish strategic alliances with multiple well-known domestic enterprises and jointly build multiple enterprise practice bases.
The college has an experimental area of 15000 square meters, with 6 research centers and a public analysis platform. The total value of experimental equipment exceeds 220 million yuan. In addition, the analysis and testing center jointly built by the school, the college and the State Key Laboratory is located in the same building as the college in the "Shaw Building". It has nearly 3000 square meters of laboratories, more than 50 sets of large precision instruments, including spherical aberration electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, ion trap time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometer, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer, matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer, which provide sufficient equipment conditions for food safety research and other cutting-edge scientific research in analysis and testing.
Future Prospects
The college will be led by disciplinary development, oriented towards national major strategies, and at the forefront of food technology and industry development. Its core tasks will be professional talent cultivation, theoretical and technological innovation, clarifying the positioning of high-level characteristic disciplines, and promoting the integration of "disciplines and majors" to achieve scientific, innovative and sustainable development of discipline construction, education and teaching, and talent cultivation. The aim is to build a first-class college with good foundation, strong advantages, wide coverage and great influence among similar disciplines in China.
