Beijing Institute of Petrochemical Technology

Beijing Institute of Petrochemical Technology (BIPT), located in China's capital Beijing, is a full-time undergraduate institution with a focus on engineering and multidisciplinary development, under the administration of the Beijing Municipal Education Commission.

Its roots trace back to the Beijing Petrochemical College founded in 1978, and it was officially established as a university in 1992, later placed under Beijing's management in 2000. As one of the first pilot universities for the Ministry of Education's 'Excellent Engineer Education and Training Program' and a CDIO engineering education reform pilot, BIPT is dedicated to cultivating engineers with global vision and practical skills.

BIPT's flagship programs include petrochemical engineering, mechanical engineering, and materials science, featuring 8 national first-class undergraduate majors, 3 national characteristic majors, 16 Beijing first-class majors, and 5 Beijing characteristic majors.

Its Engineering discipline ranks in the top 1% of ESI globally, reflecting strong research output. The university is a pioneer in the Ministry of Education's Excellent Engineer Program and a member of the CDIO Engineering Education Alliance, emphasizing project-based learning and engineering practice.

BIPT comprises 11 teaching schools (departments) and one research institute, offering 33 undergraduate programs, 6 first-level master's degree authorization points, 7 professional master's degree categories, and one postdoctoral research station.

The faculty includes over 800 staff members, many with senior titles and overseas or industry experience. The curriculum emphasizes engineering practice and innovation, adopting the CDIO engineering education model that focuses on the Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate process.

BIPT has four campuses: Qingyuan (main campus) in Daxing District with convenient transportation, plus Fangshan, Daxing Kangzhuang, and Yanshan campuses, each with unique features. The total campus area is 635 mu (about 42 hectares), with green spaces and a pleasant study environment.

The library holds over 1.02 million paper books and extensive electronic resources. Facilities include an engineering training center, AI labs, and a petrochemical simulation plant. Student dormitories are equipped with air conditioning and internet, and cafeterias offer diverse dining options.
