Chengdu University of Information Technology

When Chengdu University of Information Technology first opened its doors to only a few students and teachers in 1951, Chengdu is still a city that lacked modern and descent equipment for education. While after years of transformation and reform, it became a university co-sponsored by both Sichuan Province and China Meteorological Administration (CMA) and was officially renamed as Chengdu University of Information Technology (CUIT) in late April, 2015.

Today, it is home to more than 21,000 undergraduate students, 2600 postgraduates and over 1200 full-time faculty, and is still located in one of the largest central cities in western China with a population over 200 million.

With 57 different majors in 17 colleges, CUIT aspires to prepare its students for lives of profession and contribution. Students at CUIT will study with excellent faculty who nurture their capacity for innovation and application together with their classmates. They will pursue a multi-disciplinary education system in Engineering, Science and Management, together with Economics, Literature, Law and Art, while thoroughly immersing themselves in a diverse academic atmosphere characterized with information technology and meteorology. They will master all-round skills in a community where serves as an important base for personnel training and scientific research for the industries of information, meteorology, statistics and national defense in China.

IEEE and DRAA, the Digital Resource Acquisition Alliance of Chinese Academic Libraries, have entered into an open access read and publish agreement. This agreement makes it more convenient for corresponding authors to publish open access articles with IEEE’s industry leading journals and magazines as eligible authors pay reduced article processing charges (APCs) and may have the opportunity to pay no APCs as some of these costs are waived under the agreement.

About IEEE Institutional OA Agreements

Your institution has an OA publishing agreement with IEEE that makes it easier and more convenient for authors to publish open access. This type of agreement often includes a number of pre-paid article processing charges (APCs) to allow researchers to publish open access in eligible titles. Some institutional agreements have internal processes approving the use of APCs or limitations on the number of APCs available or the type of journals they can be used in. Please speak to your University Librarian or Open Access Administrator for more details and to check availability. Additional information can be found above regarding your institution’s OA agreement.
