ABOUT
President's message

Beijing University of Chemical Technology (BUCT) was first established as a foundation for the sciences, but has since grown to incorporate programs in the fields of management, economics, law, the arts, education, philosophy and medicine, all of which have transformed BUCT into a leading institution of tertiary education.

 

We continuously strive to advance our standard of excellence, which has roots in every aspect, ranging from our high-quality programs to our research, and extending to our sense of responsibility to give back to the local community.

 

With a rapidly evolving world, our cutting-edge research allows us to respond to the ever-growing challenges of a global, interdependent, multicultural and technologically advancing society.

 

All our teachers and students share our motto “to be ambitious, virtuous, profoundly learned and to serve the people” and endeavour to espouse the characteristics of being ‘diligent, practical, learned and innovative’ for our continued growth.

 

Looking into the future, we aim to become not only the top university in China, but also to be an influential voice in the world.


I would like to personally invite you to get acquainted with BUCT through these pages and challenge you to experience the excellence of BUCT for yourself. I look forward to meeting and speaking with you in the near future.

 

Welcome to BUCT.

 

Professor Tan Tianwei

President of BUCT
