Dalian Polytechnic University
Dalian Polytechnic University (Chinese: 大连工业大学; lit. 'Dalian Industrial University') is a public university in Dalian, Liaoning, China.
History
[edit | edit source]The school was founded in 1958 in Shenyang as the Shenyang Institute of Light Industry (Chinese: 沈阳轻工业学院). In 1970, the institute moved to Dalian and renamed to the Dalian Institute of Light Industry (Chinese: 大连轻工业学院). In 2006, previously holding the college status, the institute received its university status and renamed to Dalian Polytechnic University.[citation needed]
It is the only institution of higher education in northeastern China specializing in light industry, food, textiles, and art design. There are about 15,000 students on the 85-acre (340,000 m2) campus. Subjects taught include engineering, science, arts, management, and economics.[citation needed]
In 2025, the university expelled a female student for "improper contact with a foreigner" and "damaged national dignity," after videos circulated that suggested she had been intimate with a Ukrainian gamer. The report publicly disclosed the full name of the student.[1][2]
