Institute of Advanced Manufacturing and Modern Equipment Technology of Jiangsu University was founded in June 13, 2012. It is a full-time scientific research institution of Jiangsu University, with the construction system at deputy department level.

Institute of Advanced Manufacturing and Modern Equipment Technology takes "facing with the development strategy of advantageous disciplines in university, facing with the independent innovation demand in the field of manufacturing and equipment, facing with the cultivation of high-level innovative talents" as the guiding ideology, and takes "strengthening the discipline characteristics , improving the innovation ability and expanding the social impact" as the development goal. It is relied on mechanical engineering, materials science and engineering, vehicle engineering, agriculture Engineering, power machinery and engineering, and other first-class doctoral disciplines and advantageous disciplines. Based on the long-term development strategy of " indomitable spirit ", it adopts the development idea , which focuses on basic research and application research, interdisciplinary, and combination of production, study and research, in order to build a domestic advanced and even leading scientific research bases and talented people training bases in the field of advanced manufacturing and equipment technology.

The research directions of Institute of Advanced Manufacturing and Modern Equipment Technology mainly includes advanced manufacturing technology, modern equipment technology, high-end material design and manufacturing technology, surface engineering design and manufacturing technology, and etc. Since its establishment, the number of full-time scientific researchers has increased to 14. More than 20 government sponsored researches and more than 40 university-enterprise cooperation projects have been added, including key projects of equipment pre research field foundation of equipment development department of the Central Military Commission, key research and development projects (tasks) of the Ministry of Science and Technology, major special projects of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, National Natural Science Foundation of China, transformation of major achievements of Jiangsu Province, and etc. The scientific research funds have reached to more than 20 million yuan. More than 100 SCI and EI papers were published, and more than 20 invention patents were authorized.

Institute of Advanced Manufacturing and Modern Equipment Technology aims at the frontier of discipline development when actively adapting to "made in China 2025" and meeting the demands of national and local economic and social development, in order to make breakthroughs in basic research, application research and other aspects, such as advanced manufacturing technology, modern equipment technology, high-end material design and manufacturing technology, surface engineering design and manufacturing technology. We will build a high-level professional and innovative team in the field of advanced manufacturing and modern equipment technology.
