National Key Discipline: Radio Physics

      The discipline originated from the Ionosphere Laboratory established in 1945 of Wuhan University. In the early stage, researches were focused on development of china’s nuclear weapons, mainly engaged in the detection of additional ionized areas generated from nuclear explosion, the effect of short-wave communication under the circumstance of nuclear explosion, HF radio detection technology and etc.
      Since the 9th 5-year plan, more researches have been carried out one after another including HF surface wave radar, electromagnetic scattering characteristics of complex objects, geological radar, radar signal detection and processing, etc. In 2001, the subject was authorized as a national key discipline.
      In the past ten years, the discipline enhanced the primitive new theories and methods research on space and marine environment information by means of electromagnetic wave. At the same time, it pioneered the new system target detection technology research on passive,bistatic/multistatic radar, MIMO radar, expanded and strengthened the basic theories and key techniques research including ionospheric radio wave propagation, target characteristics of electromagnetic scattering, Artificial electromagnetic materials, RF and microwave devices.

National Key Cultivation Discipline：Space Physics

This discipline owns“the National Field Research Station of Atmospheric Remote Sensing in Wuhan”and the Innovative Research Group of“Middle and Upper Atmospheric Remote Sensing and Numerical Simulations”supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China. Now the discipline has the following research areas such as the aeronomy including the middle and upper atmospheric remote sensing & numerical modeling and the technology of atmospheric probe laser radar, the ionospheric physics and radio wave propagation, the magnetosphere and the solar-terrestrial physics and so on. It has made a series of original scientific research achievements which have international impact on the Space Environment Modeling and leaded domestic technology in the area of space environment detection

Doctoral Program First Level Discipline :地球物理学 Geophysics

The discipline is composed of three second level disciplines which are Solid Geophysics, Space Physics, Space Exploration and Technology and Information Processing. Space Physics was approved as one of the first batch PhD degree authorization centers in 1981. Solid Geophysics was approved to be established by the Ministry of Education against the background of interaction between Geodesy and Earth Science and became a DSC (Doctor of Science) degree authorization point in 1997. In 2001, Geophysics was approved to become a first level discipline doctoral degree authorization center. Space Exploration Technology and Information Processing turned into DSC degree authorization center in 2009. This discipline tied for the first place in the National College Discipline Assessments organized by Ministry of Education in 2012.

Doctoral Program First Level Discipline :信息与通信工程 Information and Communication Engineering

The major consists of two second Level disciplines which are Communication and Information Systems and Signal and Information Processing. In 1993, the Department Of Electronic Information Engineering, belonging to the former Wuhan University, offered the major of Communication Engineering for undergraduate. It was in the same year that the Department was authorized to grant the Master's degree in Communication and Information Systems. During the same year, the Department of Electronic Engineering, belonging to the former Wuhan Technical University of Surveying and Mapping, was also authorized to grant the Master's degree in Signal and Information Processing. Soon in 2000, the school applied and gained approval for granting doctor’s degree in Communication and Information Systems. Just three years later, it was entitled to the conferment of doctor degree in Signal and Information Processing. In 2005, it was entitled to the conferment of doctor degrees on the first level subjects.

Doctoral Program First Level Discipline :电子科学与技术 Electronic Science and Technology

The discipline contains four second level disciplines: Physical Electronics, Circuits and systems, Electronics and Solid State Electronics,, Electromagnetic Field and Microwave Technology. The original Wuhan University obtained the Master degree authorization in the Circuits & Systems and the Electromagnetic Field & Microwave Technology in 1990 and 1996 respectively; the original Wuhan Technical University of Surveying and Mapping got the Master degree authorization in the Physical Electronics in 1996. In 2006, Electronics and Solid State Electronics was approved as PhD degree authorization center. In 2010, Electronic Science and Technology was applied and allowed to become a first level discipline doctoral degree authorization center.

Master Degree First Level Discipline: 光学工程 Optical Engineering
