Shandong University of Science and Technology is a provincial public university in Qingdao, Shandong, China.

This public university's history stretches back to 1951, reflecting the burgeoning need for scientific and technological expertise in the region. Established with a focus on these fields, it has blossomed into a comprehensive institution. Engineering and mining technology remain its cornerstones, a testament to the area's industrial roots.

Investing in cutting-edge research facilities, attracting renowned scholars, and fostering international collaborations are all part of its vision. The university aspires to not only educate future generations but also to contribute meaningfully to global advancements in science and technology.
