The Beijing University of Chemical Technology (BUCT, Chinese: 北京化工大学; lit. 'Beijing Chemical Industry University') is a public university in Chaoyang, Beijing, China. It was founded in 1958 and is affiliated with the Ministry of Education of China. The university is part of Project 211 and the Double First-Class Construction.[1][2]

Campus

[edit]

Covering an area of 64.4 hectares, the university is composed of three campuses:[3]

  • East campus (headquarters): located on the eastern section of the North Third Ring Road, southeast of the Asian Games Village.
  • West campus: On the central section of the West Third Ring Road.
  • North campus: locates in Changping, near Lake Shisanling. Most of the North campus had been sold to China University of Petroleum while the remaining will be the dormitory for the staff, since the new North campus, a.k.a. Nankou campus, is a little bit more far from the East campus and requires additional dorm for staff.
  • Nankou campus: locates in Changping, about 5 km from the Changping Xishankou station of Beijing Subway Changping line. Near the Institute of Nuclear Energy Technology, Tsinghua University.
