Brief Introduction
Software Engineering First-leveled Discipline of Dalian University of Technology adheres to the guideline of “new ideas, new areas and new methods” to boost academic development. Following the basic concept of “Software + X”, a unique academic orientation of “Software + Ocean” has been formulated. Presently, Software Engineering First-leveled Discipline of Dalian University of Technology is operating on a “3 + 1” mode of development, which means 3 second-leveled disciplines (Software Engineering Theory and Technology, Data Science & Machine Intelligence, Ubiquitous Network & Trusted Technology) to support the top prioritized 1 second-leveled discipline, namely, Marine Information Processing and Computing.
Currently, this discipline is staffed with 108 full-time teachers, including 16 professors, 38 associate professors, 16 Ph.D. supervisors, 1 winner (Yin Baocai) of National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars, 5 “New Century Excellent Talents” granted by the Ministry of Education, 1 Overseas Academic Master, and 13 “Haitian Scholars”, 6 part-time professors (including Professor Gao Wen, member of Chinese Academy of Engineering, vice Deputy Director of the National Fund, honorary Dean of our school), 1 winner of “Highly Cited Chinese Researchers” in 2014 and 2015 respectively, 1 earners of “National Xiangjiang Scholar Project”, 2 earners of “Xing Hai Excellent Youth”, as well as more than 90 part time teachers from business and companies. More than 50% of the teachers have overseas academic background. The faculty is made up of high level teachers, featuring high-end talents as the lead, young teachers as the backbone, and a combination of part time and full time teachers.
Teachers in this discipline have published more than 540 academic papers totally, including more than 200 SCI papers, more than 50 academic papers published in high-level journals that are recognized as top A(-tier) journals, top B journals and top A-conference journals by China Computer Federation. The scientific fund reached RMB11.1mil. in 2015 and more than 60 funds have been approved by National Natural Science Funds, including 3 key programs (as Principal Investigators or Chief Collaborator) and 1 Training Program of the Major Research Plan of the National Natural Science Foundation of China. The faculty undertake 3 national defense programs, participate in 1 “973 Project”, 3 “863 Projects” and lead over 25 provincial projects and more than 20 municipal scientific projects. Our faculty has patented more than 20 National Inventions and more than 70 Software Copyrights. In the past three years, five courses have been approved as Liaoning Provincial "Excellent Resource & Sharing Course" and the Ministry of Education-IBM "Excellent Courses", and eight courses have been approved as co-constructed MOOCs with Software Schools Alliance.
Software Engineering Discipline of Dalian University of Technology sticks to its goal of building high-level Software Service & Application Platform and Marine Information Processing & Computing Platform. It has set up the Institute of Data Science & Digital Information Processing, Institute of Ubiquitous Networks & Computing, Institute of High Performance Computing, Institute of Software Security & Information Security, and Institute of Software Engineering Theory & Technology. Meanwhile, PCB Plate Lab, IOT (Internet of Things) Node Research Lab, Real-time 3D Geometric & Synchronous multi-view Image Acquisition Lab
