The School of Optoelectronic Science Engineering has originated from an earlier program of Electrical Vacuum Devices, which was established at UESTC with an aid from the former Soviet Union dated back to the year of 1956. It was among several of the earliest programs initiated in China to research on laser and optoelectronic technologies. The Department of Optoelectronic Technologies was built in 1979. In 1998, according to the new major classification of the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council and the China State Education Commission, the prior National Key Discipline of China, i.e. “Physical Electronics and Optoelectronics” was reconstructed as the program of Optical Engineering. In the same year, the program of Optical Engineering was qualified to grant the primary discipline master’s and doctoral degrees. The School of Optoelectronic Science Engineering was then constructed in 2001. Its program of Optical Engineering was selected as the Key Disciplines of Sichuan Province in 2004, and to the Cultivation Program of National Key Disciplines of China in 2007.The program of Optical Engineering has been ranked No. 7 in the recent discipline evaluation by China Ministry of Education in 2012.In December 2017, establishing school of ophotoelectric science and engineering according to the national “double top” construction requirements. On January 18, 2018, school held its founding congress.

Optoelectronic Information Science and Engineering is an electronic information profession combining optical engineering with electronic, information and mechanical engineering. This major is to cultivate talents who understand light and electricity while being able to operate at the same time, the professional graduate students have photoelectric solid foundation, strong mechanical design, electronic technology, computer application, optical fiber communication and information processing ability. And they are good at basic theory and applied technology in the field of information science and technology. The graduates of this major can be engaged in the design, development, testing, management and other aspects of the field of optical information science and technology.

School of Automation Engineering offers two post-doctoral stations—Instrument Science and Technology, Control Science and Engineering; two primary discipline doctoral and master programs- Control Science and Engineering, Instrument Science and Technology; two undergraduate programs—Automation Testing Control Technology and Instruments. Research includes broadband time-domain testing technology and instruments, electronic system testing and diagnosis, microwave and millimeter wave testing technology and remote sensing, modern signal processing and detection technology, new energy system and control technology, pattern recognition and robotics.
