History

Founded in 1942, in the Anti-Japanese War, NUPT was originally a training class whose purpose was to train specialists in telecommunications to serve the war. In 1958, it was authorized by the State Council to establish Nanjing Institute of Posts and Telecommunications, an undergraduate college founded upon two independent schools, Nanjing Telecommunication School and Nanjing Post School. In 2005, the university was renamed by the Ministry of Education as the present one. Since its establishment, the university has been maintaining the spirit of keeping pace with the times, and developed the school spirit realized as: diligent, realistic, progressive and creative. The university has been enhancing its comprehensive school-running strength and upgrading its comprehensive school-running level. In 1978, the year witnessing the national reform-and-opening policy, it was on the first batch of universities which offer master programs. The university was authorized to award doctoral degrees in 1998 and in 2007 to establish the post-doctoral research station.
