Beijing Institute of Technology, referred to as "Beili" for short, is affiliated to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. It is a national key construction university in batches since the founding of New China. After years of development, it has been successfully selected into the national "211 Project" and "985 Project" university construction, and entered the ranks of world-class university construction universities.

Beijing Institute of Technology

The story of Beijing Institute of Technology and China's national defense can't be told for three days and nights. Let's talk about its origin. Before the new China was formally established, the Academy of Natural Sciences, the predecessor of Beijing Institute of Technology, was established in the cave in Yan 'an. Although the conditions at that time were very difficult, the predecessors of Yan 'an Academy of Sciences still laid a solid foundation for the research of national defense science and technology and science and engineering. In the future, the followers of the party and the country developed all the way and grew into today's "double-class" universities.

Beijing Institute of Technology originated from the military industry, and it is brilliant in the military industry. Today, Beijing Institute of Technology continues to provide talents for China's weapons industry, and it is the growth history of China's national defense step by step from studying light weapons and infantry, armored vehicles and mechanized troops, and radar equipment and information-based troops.

Beijing Institute of Technology has two state-level collaborative innovation centers, nine state-level key laboratories and scientific research centers for engineering projects, and six state-level teaching and experimental centers, which mainly include multi-modal service robots and information system integration platform, high-efficiency frontier science center for energy chemicals, explosive detection and evidence analysis platform and other scientific research platforms.

Conclusion

There are six national key laboratories/centers, one national engineering research center, two national engineering laboratories, five innovative research groups of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the "Innovation Team Development Plan" of the Ministry of Education, etc. These research platforms have created several "firsts" in the history of science and technology in new China. For example, the first TV transmitter and receiver, the first light tank, the first 2-kilometer long-range camera, etc.
