Objective:

Well-educated professionals are cultivated with the deep theoretical basis, good discipline accumulation and strong abilities in engineering practice of Resource Recycling Science and Engineering to meet the needs of social development; and interdisciplinary engineering talents are cultivated with the concept of the harmonious development of materials and environment, the literacy of humanities and social sciences, thorough knowledge basis of engineering and professional knowledge of Resource Recycling Science and Engineering. They are also capable of applying principles of engineering to address complex engineering problems related to resource circulation. Besides, students will have the spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship, global vision, capabilities in social communication and organizational management.

Curriculum:

Duringthe first two years, students are supposed to learn Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Computer Language, English and other required basic knowledge. Then through the study of basic courses such as Introduction to the Science and Engineering of Resource Recycling, Industrial Ecology and the Fundamentals of Eco-Material, students will master the basic laws of the relationship between resource recycling and material composition, organizational structure, and performance and preparation process. The resource recycling experiment platform is a featured practice course for this major. After studying this course, students can systematically understand and master the principle of resource recycling, basic experimental skills, scientific research methods and enhance their practical abilitiesin resource recycling science and engineering. Students further systematically and deeply learn the professional knowledge of resource recycling in their selected courses.

The curriculum offers five courses of selected major-limited courses for Resource Recycling Science and Engineering and a self-study course based on characteristics of the major to cultivate students' self-study ability. Through the practical training of experimentsand graduation projects, students can independently complete the comprehensive routines of resource recycling process design, life-cycle detection and evaluation and outcome analysis with big-picture thinking and application of professional knowledge.

Career:

Graduates have wide career options and can work in industrial planning, technological development, process and equipment design, cleaner production evaluation and consultation in resource recycling, building materials, metallurgy, new material industry, raw material industry and other industries related to comprehensive utilization of resources.
