Part 1: Who We Are

Force Ignites All Things, Data and Intelligence Converge—— Forging the Future Engine of Engineering Innovation

From the millennial wisdom of Dujiangyan's ancient water management to the raw power of the Long March rocket's thrust; from the breathtaking span   of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge to the aerodynamic breakthroughs of domestic large aircraft,   Engineering Mechanics has always been the master key to unlocking engineering marvels. Meanwhile, Information and Computing Science, armed with the formidable power   of intelligent algorithms and big data analytics, relentlessly pushes the boundaries of scientific exploration. When these two disciplines converge, they ignite a technological revolution poised to redefine tradition.

Nanchang University's dual bachelor's degree program in "Engineering Mechanics    +    Information and Computing Science" leverages dual first-level doctoral programs in Mechanics and Mathematics,  national-level experimental  teaching platforms,   and  the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute to construct an integrated educational framework of    "Mathematical Foundation,   Intelligent Empowerment, and Engineering Innovation."
