School History In July 1952, according to the national higher industrial school department adjustment plan, the Central Ministry of Education decided to establish East China Institute of Chemical Technology; on August 11 of the same year, a symposium on the establishment of the school was held in the conference room of the Higher Education Department of the East China Military and Political Commission.

It was decided that the school should be named "East China Institute of Chemical Technology", which was formed by the merger of the chemical engineering departments of five universities: Jiaotong University, Aurora University, Datong University, Soochow University, and Jiangnan University. The school is located at No. 195 Zhengfa Road, Jiangwan, Shanghai.
