The College of Materials Science and Engineering traces its origins back to 1958. The discipline of Materials Science obtained the authority to confer master's degrees in 2003. This was expanded in 2006 with the granting of authority to confer master's degrees in the first-level discipline of Materials Science and Engineering. In 2010, the college obtained the authority to confer the Master of Engineering degree (in the field of Materials Engineering).
A significant milestone was reached in 2013 when the college was granted the authority to confer doctoral degrees in the first-level discipline of Materials Science and Engineering, leading to the enrollment of its first doctoral students in 2014. A postdoctoral research program was established in 2015.
The college houses several key laboratories and research bases, including the Provincial Key Laboratory of Oral Biomedical Materials and Clinical Applications, the University-Enterprise Joint R&D Center for Wear-Resistant Materials Technology under the Provincial Department of Education, the Provincial University-Enterprise Joint Postgraduate Training Innovation Demonstration Base, and the Provincial Talent Innovation Training Experimental Zone.
Additionally, it operates specialized research institutes such as the Light Alloy Processing Technology Research Institute, the Foundry Research Institute, and the New Energy Materials Research Institute.
