Sichuan University of Science & Engineering (SUSE) is a full-time public undergraduate university located in Zigong and Yibin, Sichuan Province. It is jointly established by the Sichuan Provincial Government and the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense.

Founded in 1965 as the Southwest Branch of East China Institute of Chemical Technology, the university underwent several mergers and was renamed Sichuan University of Science & Engineering in 2018. SUSE has four campuses: Baihe, Huidong, Yibin, and Huangling, covering nearly 5,500 mu (about 367 hectares) with over 40,000 full-time students.

SUSE's flagship programs include brewing engineering, chemical engineering, materials science, and food science. The university has three Sichuan key disciplines and three 'Double First-Class' construction disciplines. Three subjects—chemistry, materials science, and engineering—rank in the top 1% of ESI globally.

As the secretary-general unit of the China Brewing University Alliance, SUSE holds significant influence in the brewing industry. It is also part of the National Excellent Engineer Education and Training Program and the Data China 'Hundred Schools Project'.

SUSE employs over 3,100 faculty and staff, including many senior professors and national teaching award winners. It comprises 25 colleges offering 76 undergraduate programs and 27 master's degree programs. The curriculum integrates theory with practice, featuring bilingual courses and international modules under the Excellent Engineer Program.

Research platforms include provincial key laboratories such as the Liquor Brewing Biotechnology and Application Lab and the Material Corrosion and Protection Lab. The university collaborates with local governments and enterprises to establish industrial research institutes, driving technology transfer.

SUSE's four campuses offer diverse environments: Baihe Campus features modern facilities, Huidong Campus is in downtown Zigong, Yibin Campus sits along the Yangtze River, and Huangling Campus provides a tranquil setting.

The total campus area is about 367 hectares with 1.75 million square meters of buildings. The library spans 94,500 square meters, housing 3.18 million print books and 2.55 million e-books. Student dormitories are equipped with air conditioning, hot water, and internet.
