Chongqing University is a big place, filled with curious undergraduates, driven graduate students, brilliant faculty, and dedicated staff, all working to advance our lives, our society, and the intellectual caliber of the first class public research university in the world.

By choosing to pursue a degree within the School of Resources and Safety Engineering, students find that small-college feel that gives them a sense of home within this big place. Students will get to know people in their major and throughout RSE, work with their advisors to stay on track academically, and enjoy special programs supported by our generous alumni base.

Graduate students will work closely with our world-renowned faculty in one of three academic units that offer a diversity of opportunities, from mining engineering to safety engineering to resources and environment.

With all our diversity, we have one thing in common, and it lives at the core of our identity as the founding college of CQU: our work crosses the bounds of narrow academic disciplines to understand and address societal and environmental problems. Or as we like to say: We see the bigger picture to make a better world.
