The School of Engineering at China Pharmaceutical University was established in 2014. Positioned as a teaching-and research-oriented school supported by engineering and technology, the School is dedicated to all stages of drug research and development, with distinctive strengths in interdisciplinary integration. Guided by the philosophy of being “small but excellent,” the School emphasizes focused development and high-level academic excellence.
The School currently has 133 faculty and staff members, including 99 full-time faculty, 13 postdoctoral researchers, 6 full-time administrative staff, 5 student counselors, 8 technical staff, and 2 support staff. Among the full-time faculty, 22 hold full professorships, 43 hold associate professorships, and 63 serve as doctoral or master’s supervisors. The School consists of the Department of Pharmaceutical and Environmental Engineering, the Department of Food Nutrition and Safety, the Department of Biomedical Engineering and Diagnostic Pharmacy, and the GMP Training Center. Through integrating research resources and refining research directions, the School has achieved continuous innovation and has secured numerous prestigious grants and platforms over the past five years, including the Ministry of Education Engineering Research Center for Intelligent Pharmaceutical Engineering, projects under the National Key R&D Program of China, Major International Cooperative Projects and Key Projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, National Major Scientific Research Instrument Development Projects, the Cooperative Research Fund for Overseas and Hong Kong/Macau Scholars, the Excellent Young Scientists Fund, and the Jiangsu Outstanding Young Scientists Fund.
The School currently offers four undergraduate programs: Pharmaceutical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Food Nutrition and Health (Food Quality and Safety), and Environmental Science. It is authorized to confer doctoral and master’s degrees in the first-level discipline of Biomedical Engineering, as well aa doctoral and master’s degrees in Pharmaceutical Sciences (Pharmaceutical Engineering), a second-level discipline within Pharmaceutical Sciences. In addition, the School offers professional degree programs in Biology & Medicine and Food & Nutrition.
The School has established a GMP-compliant Training Center that meets the latest Good Manufacturing Practice standards and serves as a provincial-level comprehensive disciplinary training center. The facility operates seven production workshops (lines), including solid dosage forms, injections, lyophilized powder injections, biopharmaceuticals, traditional Chinese medicine extraction, pharmaceutical synthesis, and utility engineering. With a total floor area of 4,800 square meters, including 3,600 square meters of cleanroom facilities, the center serves as an integrated platform for practical education, process optimization, and engineering training.
The School fosters a vibrant research environment and has established advanced research platforms including biological testing laboratories, chemical synthesis laboratories, pharmaceutical engineering laboratories, molecular biology laboratories, microbiology laboratories, separation and purification technology laboratories, chromatographic instrumentation laboratories, and a drug molecular imaging center. State-of-the-art equipment, including small-animal radionuclide SPECT/CT imaging systems and transmission electron microscopes (TEM), provides strong support for teaching and scientific research.
We sincerely invite outstanding scholars from around the world in Pharmaceutical Engineering, Environmental Science, Food Science, Biomedical Engineering, Diagnostic Pharmacy, and related disciplines to join the School of Engineering at China Pharmaceutical University and build the future together.
