Changchun University of Science and Technology (Chinese: 长春理工大学; pinyin: Chángchūn Lǐgōng Dàxué) is a provincial key university, previously known as Changchun Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, 1960-2002(Chinese: 長春光學精密機械學院). The university was founded in 1958 in Changchun, Jilin, China.
After half a century’s development and construction, Changchun University of Science and Technology has been developed into a multidisciplinary university with opto-electronic technology as its outstanding feature and with the integration of optics, mechanics, electronics, computer science as well as material science as its superiority.
Following the educational philosophy of ‘Focusing on Cultivation, Advocating Science’ and the university motto of ‘Virtuous, Learned, truthful, Innovative’, the university is endeavoring to reach the goal of ‘provincially top, nationally advanced, and internationally well-known’.
Changchun University of Science and Technology has accepted nearly 1000 international students since 1987. The international students mostly come from over 30 countries such as the United States, Russia, Britain, Canada, Norway, Korea, Sudan, Mongolia, DPRK, Vietnam, Japan, Mali, and Micronesia.

CUST Library was initially founded in 1958, simultaneously with the university itself. With unanimous growth with CUST, the infrastructure of the libraries as well as other aspects of dedication have maintained steady development. Since nearly half a century’s construction, two large and modern libraries with its unique features of collection are now erupting at both the east campus and west campus of CUST. Following CUST’s overall layout and programming, the library in the east campus nominates a collection of books in the fields of sciences while the library in the west campus mainly collects books involving the fields of humanities.
The libraries have now a collection of 1,772,000 copies of books in Chinese and foreign languages. The floor area of the libraries is 32,621 square meters.
Optical electric engineering school of Changchun university of science and technology established in 1958, was originated from the optical electric engineering department of Changchun Institute of optics and fine mechanics. There are five departments in this school: optical engineering department, instrumental science and technology department, detection and information engineering department, photo electronics institution and the institute of space technology. In the school here is also one national key major, two Doctoral (optical engineering and instrumental science and technology), three master's programs (optical engineering, measuring and testing technology, and fine instruments), and four bachelor programs (controlling technology and instruments, opto electrical information engineering, information confrontation, detection guidance and controlling technology).
