Guilin University of Electronic Technology (GUET) is
one of the fastest-growing and most successful universities in China,
with a national and international reputation for high standard of its
teaching and research. The university is located in Guilin, a world
famous tourist city with an area of 145.2 acres. Its beautiful campus
provides a good environment for studying and research. The university
has a distinguished faculty of 900 professors and lecturers in all disciplines.
Currently it has 13, 000 students from Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao
and overseas.
The
academic units in the university includes 16 schools or departments,
offering 50 undergraduate programs, 11 postgraduate programs, 6 state
funded programs and 8 provincially funded programs. The university
also provides excellent facilities and support services with its 18
research institutes, 14 experimental centers, 1 workshop and 5 state
funded laboratories. GUET offers a wide range of courses in electronic
information technology, engineering, management, science, arts and
education. Interdisciplinarity is a strong feature at GUET. The structure
of academic units and the curriculum encourages collaboration and exploration
across traditional disciplinary boundaries. GUET is the first institution
in GuangXi to practise the credit system. The project of Network Based
Teaching Quality Management and Supervisory System have won the second
prize in the State's Teaching Assessment. The university offers very
flexible modules to both full-time and part-time students leading to
diplomas (certificate), bachelor degree and master degree. Some professors
of the university can also offer doctorial programs to distinguished
students. These programs have been very practical and vigorous. GUET
Net was among the earliest university networks in China to connect
to the rest of the world, using the China Education and Research Network.
Today the network covers the whole university ensuring efficient and
effective management and easy, convenient office work. With the Internet,
staff members and students can easily exchange information home and
abroad, and on-line distance learning becomes available. For the past
40 years, GUET has been taking pains to improve the quality of its
education, and has won a good reputation for its excellent teaching
combined with first-rate research. The university's
culture, featured by honesty, teamwork, motivation to succeed, and creativity,
has always been encouraging to people within and around GUET. The university
also endeavors to enhance education in humanities and the development
of students' creativity. In the National Electronic Design competition
2001 we are proud to count the highest prize Sony Cup, three first prizes
and one second prize. So far, GUET students have demonstrated their
knowledge skills and ability in many national competitions. Among all
universities in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous
Region, GUET has always ranked first in the Mathematics Examination,
National Computer Skill Test, and National College English Test. The
university has been carefully developing programs to meet the needs
of employers, and to work with businesses to provide students with relevant,
practical teaching that greatly enhances career prospects. Each year
about 95 of its graduates get their jobs immediately after graduation.
Staff research interests are very extensive, including innovation, theoretical
research, and technology development. Staff are currently engaged in
a variety of pioneering projects funded by the State National Science
Foundation, National Defense Foundation, the State's "863"
Foundation, and the like. GUET's research strengths are found in machatronic
integration, mobile telecommunications, automation, adaptive signal
processing, testing technology, computer networking, image transmitting
and processing, application of multi-media technology and material engineering.
The university believes that inter-university cooperation is important
for a university's development and its students' personal and academic
growth. It has set up close links with 15 universities in American,
France, Japan, Australia and some other countries in the areas of teaching,
research and exchange.
On 19 November 1990, Mr. Jiang Zemin, president of People's Republic
of China, visited GUET . He encouraged us to educate more qualified
engineers and managerial talents for the development of China's electronic
industry. Currently, GUET is constructing doctorial programs as well
as restructuring and developing other programs. The major tasks are
aiming at higher level's and better quality in teaching and research,
and educating people who have good understanding of their academic areas,
rich knowledge of natural and social sciences, good communicative and
interpersonal skills, and who are capable, creative, responsible, and
highly motivated to succeed. GUET is making greater efforts to consummate
engineering, management, science, arts, and education while continuing
to develop its strong area in electronic information technology. Interdisciplinary
research is emphasized. With our efforts and supports from around the
world, GUET is progressing
towards perfection.
