description
The Department of Energy and Power Engineering was formerly known as the Power Engineering Group of the Mechanical Engineering Department founded in 1932, the Department of Power Machinery founded in 1952, and the Department of Thermal Engineering in founded 1978 and was renamed as the Department of Energy and Power Engineering in 2017. Our department includes five research institutes, Thermal Engineering, Engineering Thermophysics, Gas Turbines, Thermal Power Simulation, and Control and Fluid Machinery and Engineering. The Center for Combustion Energy of Tsinghua University is also affiliated with the department.

The Department of Energy and Power Engineering offers the undergraduate program for Energy and Power Engineering, the primary discipline of Power Engineering and Engineering Thermophysics, and the professional master’s degree in Power Engineering. The primary discipline comprises the four secondary disciplines of Engineering Thermophysics, Thermal Engineering, Power Machinery and Engineering, and Fluid Machinery and Engineering, among which, Engineering Thermophysics, Thermal Engineering, and Power Machinery and Engineering are state key disciplines, and have always been ranked at the top in national rankings.

The Department of Energy and Power Engineering discipline was the first institution, this area to establish a post-doctoral research program in Power Engineering and Engineering Thermophysics which was then promoted to a National Merit Post-doctoral Research Station.

We view education as our fundamental mission. Through years of practice, we have built an educational system for undergraduates and postgraduates which is informative, integrated, and innovative. This system includes a curriculum of nationally recognized high-quality courses in Engineering Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, and Combustion as well as the practical experience in the National Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center of Power Engineering and Engineering Thermophysics and the industrial training program that cooperates with key domestic companies as well as international initiatives that partner with renowned universities throughout the world. We aim to cultivate top innovative talent with strong morals, a solid theoretical foundation, creative thinking, international vision, and social responsibility in the Energy and Power field.

Our department is at the forefront of world science and technology. While engaged in cutting edge research and key technology development, we are striving to build the national economy and to transfer scientific and technological developments to the industry. We have completed many key national and provincial research projects, have extensive research cooperation with industry both at home and abroad, and have received numerous national and provincial awards including more than 20 national awards. Our projects have contributed greatly to the energy and power fields, and to defense, aerospace, and environmental protection needs. We have established extensive connections with many cooperative projects with world-class universities, research institutes, and energy companies throughout the world and have founded multiple research institutes that promote our international reputation and put us at the forefront of fundamental research and R&D of new technologies.
