Focusing on scientific advances and significant issues during the development of economic society, theoretical researches and technological innovation are carried out in the School of Mines to meet the demand of national energy. By now, the school has built several state-level platforms for teaching and research, which involves “State Key Laboratory of Coal Resources and Safe Mining”, “Key Laboratory of Deep Coal Resource Mining” and “Jiangsu Provicne Key Laboratory of Mine Earthquake Monitoring”. The discipline of mining Engineering has been listed in key discipline construction of national “211 project”, “985 Advantage Discipline Innovation Platform” and “world-class universties and world-class disciplines”. It has been ranked first in the national discipline evaluation and keeps its leading role in the world.
During 11th Five-year Plan, the School has undertaken 93 national research projects including “973 project” and “863 project”, 168 research projects at provincial or ministerial level and completed more than 1000 univerity-enterprise cooperation projects. The total research funds have reached 720 million RMB with government sponsored research of 120 million RMB. In addition, the School has granted 12 national science and technology awards such as “National Prize for Progress in Science and Technology” and “National Technology Invention Awards”, 141 provincial or ministerial science and technology awards, 375 patents and more than 10 software copyrights. Besides, 8 industrial standards have been set, and more than 150 academic papers have been published and cited by SCI, and over 400 papers have been published and cited by EI. Over 80 books have been published. The School gains reputation on academic circles both at home and abroad.
