The department of physical chemistry has 14 faculty and staff members, including 7 full professors, 3 associate professors and 5 doctoral supervisors. Among our department members, 11 of them have doctorates.  1 professor was awarded the national teaching masters award. 1 professor obtained Outstanding Young investigator Award. 2 professors were selected to the New Century Talents Scheme. 1 professor was the finalist of Beijing municipal science and technology star plan. And 1 professor was awarded the Prize of Excellent University Key Teacher by the Ministry of Education of China.

The department of physical chemistry is not only responsible for building the doctor station of physical chemistry and the Municipal Key Discipline, but supporting the Key National Discipline of Chemical Engineering and Technology.

The physical chemistry discipline of BUCT had the right to grant master’s degree in 2003, and it had been authorized to confer doctorates and successfully applied the Beijing Municipal Key Discipline in 2007, and provided with a Post-Doctoral Research Center. With many years development, the discipline of physical chemistry invents new catalytic material, environmental benign catalytic material, new energy conversion material and energy storage materials, which focus on satisfying national vital demand. The discipline forms long-term and steady leading research directions such as multi-scale computational chemistry that is directed by the development of frontier discipline. Crossing with other disciplines, physical chemistry also forms many characteristic research areas such as the chemistry of chemical micro device assembly. Our discipline assumes a dozen tasks of national 973 program and some basic research projects of Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and the Natural Science Foundation of Beijing. In recent years, our discipline published nearly 100 academic papers, applied more than 20 national invention patents, and gained provincial science and technology award once. Coming along with fundamental research and basic research for application, we consider the engineering background and advantages of BUCT, and we also focus on engineering research and industrialization research. Supported by national key program such like 863 Major Program Project and 863 Priority Subject, many research results have achieved successful application.  

The department of physical chemistry not only takes the responsibility of the enormous variety of graduate courses, but basic courses for undergraduates and professional basic courses of Basic Chemistry, College Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Structural Chemistry, Calculational Chemistry and University Chemistry Experiment, training and providing qualified personnel for the country. Meanwhile, our department takes on several national-level and colonel-level reform items, wins many research result awards within our university and Beijing, and publishes a large quantity of academic papers of educational reform.
