History
The University was first founded in 1951. There are over 12,000 full-time students in our university; including postgraduates，undergraduates, and the three-year program students. Water Conservancy and Hydroelectric Power Engineering, Hydraulic Structures Engineering, Hydraulics and Fluvial Power Engineering, Hydrology and Water Resources, and Geological Engineering subjects have been identified by both HenanProvince and the Water Conservancy Ministry as key subjects. The Hydraulic Structures Laboratory and Material Construction Laboratory are also key laboratories of both HenanProvince and the Water Conservancy Ministry. In addition, the university has had the qualification for enrolling overseas students from 1958. This lapsed for the reason of our university's move. The university has started to enroll overseas students since 2004, and have been qualified to give a separate examination for postgraduate students, and to recommend and receive undergraduate students who apply for the master degree program without completing examinations. The university also holds the right to accept applications for the postgraduate program from candidates with an equivalent education level.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“In the history of the human mind, these glowing and ruddy fables precede the noonday thoughts of men, as Aurora the sun’s rays. The matutine intellect of the poet, keeping in advance of the glare of philosophy, always dwells in this auroral atmosphere.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“While the Republic has already acquired a history world-wide, America is still unsettled and unexplored. Like the English in New Holland, we live only on the shores of a continent even yet, and hardly know where the rivers come from which float our navy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“In history an additional result is commonly produced by human actions beyond that which they aim at and obtain—that which they immediately recognize and desire. They gratify their own interest; but something further is thereby accomplished, latent in the actions in question, though not present to their consciousness, and not included in their design.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
