Introduction

     College  of Chemistry, previously known as Department of Chemistry, was founded in 1952  by Academician Tsai Liusheng, Academician Tang Auchin, Professor Kuan Shizhi,  and Professor Tao Weisun. In June 2000, the former Jilin University, the former  Jilin University of Technology, the former Norman Bethune Medical University,  the former Changchun University of Science and Technology, and the former  Changchun Institute of Posts and Telecommunications merged into the new Jilin  University. College of Chemistry was then formed by the staff and students in  Chemistry Discipline from all the five universities in May 2001. 

    There  are 359 faculty members working in the College, including 4 members of Chinese  Academy of Sciences, 139 full professors (115 Ph.D. supervisors), 101 associated  professors, 1,154 undergraduate students and 1,242 graduate students. 

    Our  College focuses on both student education and scientific research. Our  researches on quantum chemistry computation, polymer statistical mechanics,  oriented growth and molecular engineering of microporous crystals, hydrothermal  synthesis of inorganic functional materials, supramolecular structure and  materials, and specialty engineering plastics are well-recognized in the  scientific community. Both the quantity and quality of our research papers  increase every year. On the aspect of scientific and technological application,  rapid progress has been made. Some patented scientific instruments have been put  in mass production and some research achievements have been transformed  internationally. 

    College  of Chemistry actively cooperates and communicates with domestic and overseas  famous universities and scientific research institutions. More than 69% of our  undergraduate students pursued graduate studies in both domestic and abroad  universities. A large number of well-known professors from our College have been  invited to make plenary speeches and keynote reports on international academic  conferences, and serve in the committees for top international scientific  journals and research institutions. We also successfully hosted many  international conferences. The College has established a global collaborative  network of research partnership with prominent research institutes from USA, UK,  Germany, Japan, Korea, Spain, France, Canada, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan  regions.
