The College of Science at Hangzhou Dianzi University is consisted of Mathematics Department and Physics Department. There are 6 research institutes in the College of Science, which concentrate on research of Pure Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Computational Mathematics, Operational Research & Cybernetics, Quantum and optics, Condensed matter physics and Energy Research, respectively. Currently, it has 3 master degree programs of the first level discipline (Mathematics, Statics, Physics), 1 master degree programs of the second level discipline (Power Mechanical Equipment & Automation), 3 bachelor-degree programs (Information and Computing Science, Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, Optoelectronic Information Science and Engineering). Among them, Mathematics, as a first-discipline program, is a key-discipline program in the 12th 5-year plan and top-discipline project (A class) of Zhejiang Province and has high priority for the development of Ph.D. program. Engineering Thermal Physics is a key-discipline program of Hangzhou Dianzi University. Information and Computing Science is preponderant subject in the 12th 5-year plan of Zhejiang Province.
The College of Science has 139 faculties and staffs, including 1 Academician of the Academy of Sciences for the Developing World, 3 distinguished professors of Hangzhou Dianzi University, 29 professors, and 50 associated professors/associated academic researchers. Most faculties have received their Ph.D degree. The College of Science has undertaken more than 60 research projects in the last 3 years, supported by the Key Program of the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), Military Pre-Research Foundation, Key Project of Chinese Ministry of Education, and Zhejiang Provincial Natural Science Foundation of China, etc. Academic research within the College of Science has resulted in more than 300 articles and papers, about 130 of which are indexed by SCI (ISI Web of Science). The College of Science provides 6 Provincial Excellent courses. Many teachers have won the title of outstanding/famous teachers in Zhejiang Province, as well as the title of outstanding/famous teachers in Hangzhou Dianzi University. The innovative teaching team for National Mathematical Contest in Modeling (MCM) has continuously obtained excellent rewards in the past 5 years. Under their supervision and guidance, undergraduate students in the College of Science have achieved over 30 first and second prizes in Chinese MCM; furthermore, they have won 1 special prize, 6 first prizes, and 28 second prize in the international MCM. The MCM team in the School of Science at Hangzhou Dianzi University is taking a leading role among all teams from different Universities in Zhejiang Province. The College of Science has participated in the physical innovation theory competition and science and technology innovation competition of college students in Zhejiang Province, and its achievements have maintained a leading position in provincial colleges and universities. The College of Science has won the excellent organization award for four consecutive years
