History

Chengdu University of Information Technology was established in 1951 named Southwest Air Force Meteorological Training Brigade for People's Liberation Army. It was renamed Chengdu School of Meteorology in 1956 and Chengdu Institute of Meteorology in 1978 under the direct administration of China Meteorological Bureau. Since transferred to the direct administration of Sichuan People's Government and renamed Chengdu University of Information Technology in 2000, CUIT has developed into a multidisciplinary university with 53 different majors in 17 schools.
