Discipline Introduction
The Information Engineering major is a cutting-edge discipline based on electronic information technology and information processing, focusing on information collection, processing, transmission, embedded system design, and industrial internet applications., providing core technical support for the construction of the new generation of information infrastructure and the development of strategic emerging industries in the country, and is an important support for the “5+1” modern industrial system construction in Sichuan Province. The major focuses on cultivating high-quality engineering and technical talents with the ability to handle “complex environmental perception information processing” (such as data collection and information processing in scenarios like radar and remote sensing) and “intelligent perception and control system design” (such as embedded systems and intelligent IoT hardware development) with both software and hardware skills.

Major Advantages
This major is a national-level first-class major, a characteristic major in Sichuan Province, a pilot for the excellent engineer education training program, and a provincial-level application demonstration major.. It leads the construction of the “Sichuan Provincial Off-Campus Practice Education Base for College Students” and participates in the construction of the “Sichuan Provincial Engineering Research Center for Flexible Communication Networks in New Power Systems,” collaborating with leading industry enterprises to create four industry-university-research collaborative innovation centers focused on electronic technology and sensor detection. Relying on a national-level teaching team and the Intelligent Perception and Embedded Systems Laboratory, it deeply integrates the discipline group of “Intelligent Equipment and Industrial Internet,” forming outstanding advantages in key technology areas such as intelligent perception equipment development and industrial IoT control systems, aiming to solve the “bottleneck” technical problems in the national electronic information industry and continuously supply high-level technical talents to companies like Huawei, ZTE, and China Mobile.
