  Only one month after school started this fall, the signing rate of 2022 graduates of Sichuan Construction Vocational and Technical College (hereinafter referred to as “Sichuan Construction Institute”) has reached 58.33%, and the proportion of graduates employed in key enterprises in the industry has reached 47.09%.

  In the field of industry, the skilled talents cultivated by Sichuan Institute of Construction have a good reputation. Behind this is the solid footprint left by the wisdom and sweat of generations of college builders who have seized opportunities and overcome difficulties in the tide of development of the times since the establishment of the school in 1956.

  In recent years, as an explorer and practitioner of China’s vocational education, Sichuan Jianyuan has always adhered to the school motto of “Building morals, building abilities and dedication”, adhering to the school-running philosophy of “cultivating Luban successors and serving urban and rural construction”, and pioneered “multi-party cooperation” The school-running pattern of, diversified and co-construction has achieved the effect of “high-quality, high-employment, and high-achievement” talent training. □Yunhan (picture provided by Sichuan Vocational and Technical College of Architecture)

  Forge ahead to create domestic first-class higher vocational education

  Sichuan Construction Institute originated from Chengdu Urban Construction Engineering School established in 1956, and was renamed Chengdu Construction Engineering School in 1958. In 1961, Chengdu Institute of Civil Engineering, Jiangyou Building Materials Industry School, and Chengdu Industrial Equipment Installation School were merged into the school. In 1963, they were relocated to Deyang, Sichuan. In 1980, it was renamed Sichuan Provincial Construction Engineering School and was designated as a national key secondary school by the Ministry of Education. In 1999, a new higher vocational school was established on a trial basis. In 2001, with the approval of the Sichuan Provincial People’s Government, the former Sichuan Construction Engineering School, Sichuan Urban Construction School, and Sichuan Construction Workers University merged to form Sichuan Construction Vocational and Technical College, opening a new chapter in the college’s higher vocational education.
