Introduction to School of Energy Research
The School of Energy Research in Xiamen University (SER-XMU) was founded in September 2007. It is guided by the key energy technology demands of the nation and the economic development needs of the west coast of the Taiwan Strait. Through integration, introduction and improvement, we aim to build the School into a first-class new energy technology base in China for education, R&D and technology transfer.
SER-XMU is consisted of 5 institutes and centers: the Institute for Advanced Nuclear Energy, the Institute for Chemical Energy, the Institute for Bio-energy, the Institute for Solar Energy, and the Center for Energy Economics Research, with planning to set up the Center for Energy Efficiency Engineering. SER-XMU has integrated a group of high level experts including three members of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, one of the winners of the National Thousand Talents Program, one Cheung Kong Scholar, three of the winners of the China National Funds for Distinguished Young Scientists, and over 30 professors. SER-XMU has 4 Ph.D. programs in nuclear science and engineering, energy chemistry, photovoltaic engineering, and energy economics, respectively.
Through intensive talent introduction and training within the next 3 to 5 years, SER-XMU will build up a crop of high caliber researchers and engineering experts in the fields of clean chemical energy, nuclear energy, solar and wind energy, bio energy, energy economics, and energy efficiency engineering etc, dedicated to high quality R&D in energy sciences and technologies. SER-XMU will become a first-class base for new energy technology development and a base for industrialization demonstration, supporting sustainable energy development in China.
To experts, scholars, industrial and business specialists from around the world who are interested in the development and utilization of new energy technologies, we welcome your joining us or collaborating with us.
