Harbin Engineering University (HRBEU; Template:Zh) is a public science and engineering university in Harbin, Heilongjiang, China. It is affiliated with the Ministry of Education, and co-funded by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Education, the Heilongjiang Provincial People's Government, the Harbin Municipal People's Government, and the People's Liberation Army Navy. The university is part of the Double First-Class Construction and Project 211.[1][2]

The university was established in 1970 based on the Department of Naval Engineering of the then Chinese People's Liberation Army Military Engineering College. It received the national accreditation to confer master's degrees and doctorates in 1981. The university now offers more than 150 degree programs, among them 48 are conducted in English.[3]

History

HEU traces its origins to the PLA Military Engineering Institute established in Harbin on September 1, 1953, with technical support from the Soviet Union after the Korean War. In 1966, the university became a local and non-military university and was renamed Harbin Engineering College. In 1970 the old university was however dismissed due to the tension at the border with the then Soviet Union. The major part of the old university, including university-level administration, was moved inland to Changsha, Hunan Province. A few other departments were also moved inland but to other places. The part that remained in Harbin formed a new university and was renamed as Harbin Shipbuilding Engineering Institute (Template:Zh).Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

The current name has been in use since 1994.[4]

HEU was one of the first universities authorized by the state to award master and doctoral degrees.[5]
