Welcome to South China University of Technology !

Through a century of trials and triumphs, South China University of Technology (SCUT) has flourished, nurturing generations of distinguished talent. Tracing its roots back to the Guangdong Provincial First-Class Industrial School a century ago, SCUT was formally established in 1952 as one of the “Four Institutes of Technology” in China. Over the decades, SCUT has forged ahead with reform and confidently stepped forward remaining to its original mission: to build up a world-class university and nurture top-tier talents. Guided by SCUT’s motto and upholding a tradition of academic excellence, generations of SCUT graduates have grown into remarkable engineers, entrepreneurs  and scientists, contributing their wisdom and strength to the rise of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the rejuvenation of our nation, and the progress of humanity.

SCUT is located in Guangzhou with three campuses, where technology and humanities merge, tradition and modernity shine together in harmony. SCUT is a hall of academic freedom, characterized by a vibrant academic atmosphere, outstanding research, and renowned scholars. This is a dynamic stage for nurturing well-rounded individuals, brimming with youthful energy and a drive to innovate. It also offers an ideal path to a bright future, featuring state-of-the-art academic hubs and inspiring landscapes, with its Guangzhou International Campus reaching top levels.

Rising to challenges and striving for excellence, SCUT has charted an ambitious blueprint for reform and development in this new phase-building SCUT into a university with academic excellence, global engagement, good governance, joyful community and beautiful campuses. This marks the start of a comprehensive journey for SCUT to become a world-class university with Chinese characteristics, as it speeds its way toward the global top 100.

We warmly welcome students and scholars from around the globe to join SCUT. Let us work together to foster cultural exchange, contribute to social progress, and build a community with a shared future for all.
