The school has strong scientific research strength. The school has the most complete discipline system of iron and steel metallurgy in China, and the specialties of refractories and coking are the first in China and enjoy a good reputation at home and abroad. At present, there are 5 provincial and ministerial key disciplines, and the discipline of chemical engineering and technology has been rated as "the first-class discipline in Liaoning Province". Since the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan", the school has undertaken scientific research projects at all levels 18 16, including more than 50 national-level projects such as the National Science and Technology Support Plan, the National 863 Plan and the National Natural Science Foundation. He won more than 0/00 science and technology awards at all levels, granted 422 patents, and invested nearly 800 million yuan in science and technology. National Engineering Technology Research Center 1 each, provincial major science and technology platforms 1 each, 2 provincial collaborative innovation centers, and 20 provincial key laboratories and engineering (technical) research centers were approved.
Schools continue to expand the field of social services and development space. The school science park was established in 1996, and was recognized as the national university science park in 20 10. The Technology Transfer Center of Science Park was designated as a national technology transfer demonstration institution by the Ministry of Science and Technology in 20 15. At present, there are 6 1 enterprises, 52 incubating enterprises, 5 listed enterprises and 4 college students' self-starting enterprises, and more than 80 scientific and technological achievements have been transformed in the fields of iron and steel processing, advanced equipment manufacturing, new chemical materials, deep processing of magnesite and photoelectric industry. Adhering to the school-enterprise philosophy of "school-enterprise integration * * * prosperity * * *", the school has formed school-enterprise alliances with more than 100 enterprises, built more than 50 R&D centers, and undertaken and developed more than 100 national, provincial and ministerial scientific research projects including the national "863" project. The school and HKUST Julong Group jointly established the National Financial Security and System Equipment Engineering Technology Research Center, and the research and development achievements reached the domestic initiative and international leading level, becoming the leader of technological innovation in the industry.
This school is open to the whole world. At present, partnerships have been established with more than 30 foreign universities and friendly cooperation agreements have been signed with 23 universities. Since the Twelfth Five-Year Plan, the scale of running schools for international students has been further expanded, and the professional types and academic level have been further improved.
