School of Environment and Natural Resources, Renmin University of China was founded in November, 2001. It is an innovative and problem-oriented multi-disciplinary college, as well as the first comprehensive education and research organization integrating disciplines of economics, management, science and engineering in China. There are four departments, including Department of Environment and Resource Economics, Department of Environment and Resource Management, Department of Environmental Science and Department of Environmental Engineering. The school is committed to cultivating interdisciplinary top talents who are based on localization and oriented to internationalization, serving the major development strategies of national ecological civilization construction.
The School of Information is the first institute named after "information"
in Chinese universities. It aims to cultivate outstanding scientists and
engineers in the information science and technology area, as well as
cross-disciplinary experts who can apply modern information technology to
economics, management and other fields. After more than 40 years of
development, it has built an integrated undergraduate, graduate and doctoral
training system for multiple disciplines of information science and technology.
It is a top-notch school in computer science and technology, and the leading
school in database and big data in China.
The School of Statistics is ranked the first in the
national first-level academic discipline of statistics by the Ministry of
Education. It is a top academic institute in the national strategy of
developing first-class universities and first-class disciplines globally. Our
vision is to address current and future challenges faced by China and the
global through the excellence in education and research. Our mission is to
develop leaders in statistics, data science, actuarial science, econometrics,
and biostatics.
The Department of Chemistry of Renmin
University of China (RUC) was established in 2004, with both master's degree program
and doctoral degree program in chemistry. In accordance with its development
philosophy of building small-scale, top-notch and cutting-edge science
subjects, the department has achieved remarkable achievement in training top-notch
chemistry professionals and in the field of energy, environment, materials and
bioscience. In 2020, the Department of Chemistry of RUC entered the top 0.41%
of the global ESI ranking, marking a remarkable improvement of the top 1% in
2015. As a major contributor, the Department of Chemistry has played a
significant role in helping the University enter the top 1% of ESI in Materials
in 2020. The Department of Chemistry was selected as a national first-class
undergraduate program in 2022. The Department of Chemistry is positioned to
serve the university's talent cultivation strategy, conducting basic researches
in accordance with national demand on a selective basis and with clear focus.
Going forward, the department is committed to developing into a world-class
chemistry education and research institution.
The Department of Physics of Renmin
University of China was established in September 2005, covering two undergraduate majors in Physics and Materials Physics, a first-level doctoral
program in Physics, three second-level doctoral programs in Theoretical Physics,
Condensed Matter Physics, and Atomic-molecular Physics, and corresponding master's programs. " In 2020, Physics was approved as a national first-class undergraduate program. One year later, the program was selected as
a base for the Ministry of Education's "2.0 Program for Cultivating Top-notch Students in Basic Disciplines". In addition, we have one Beijing key laboratory,
one key laboratory for neutron scattering in Renmin University of China, and
two "Changjiang Scholar Innovation Teams" authorized by the Ministry
of Education. So far, the Department of Physics has received one second-class
prize of the National Natural Science Award, one first-class prize of the
Natural Science Award of the Ministry of Education, one second-class prize of
Beijing Science and Technology, and one second-class prize of Zhejiang Natural
Science Award. The Department of Physics, with its mission to cultivate
top-notch innovative talents, is a rising star among the physics departments of
well-known universities in China and abroad, with its international management
model, excellent teaching conditions, outstanding research capabilities, and
active international exchanges.
The Institute of Statistics and Big Data (ISBD) at The Renmin University of China was established in May of 2015 with the mission to build a first-class discipline in Statistics and Data Science. It supports research and teaching in traditional statistical areas, such as mathematical statistics, financial statistics, biostatistics, computational statistics, spatial statistic and applied statistics, and other related areas, such as large data optimization and algorithm, large data (structured or non-structured) mining, machine learning and deep learning.
The School of
Mathematics is currently comprised of Institute for Mathematical Sciences,
Engineering Research Center of Financial Computing and Digital Engineering
Department of Pure Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, Department of
Information and Computational Science, Department of financial mathematics and
financial computing. In 2011 it was approved to grant doctoral degrees of the
level-1 discipline on mathematics. In 2019, the post doctoral research station
of mathematics was approved, and mathematics and applied mathematics entered
the first batch of first-class undergraduate majors in China. The school
currently has 61 full-time teachers, among whom there are 3 foreign professors
(full time) and 10 teachers are elected to the National Talents Plan.
Gaoling School of Artificial Intelligence
(GSAI) is an official school affiliated to Renmin University of China (RUC).
The vision of GSAI is to become a top school that will influence and shape the era of AI. The goal of GSAI is to innovate a world-class academic system, to build a
world-class faculty team, to cultivate world-class students, and to produce world-class research results. Along with advancing AI theory and technology, GSAI is committed to bringing AI and humanities together and exploring the “intelligent
and warm” future for the world.
