Fee note: The application fee is CNY 400, published as a registration fee (报名费) in the 2026 International Student Recruitment Guide of Taiyuan University of Technology. The guide's 相关费用 Relevant Fees table lists "Registration fee 报名费 400 yuan / 400 元" in a column of its own, separate from the Tuition fee 学费 column (15,000 yuan/year doctoral, 12,000 yuan/year master's, 10,000 yuan/year bachelor's, 6,000 yuan/year preparatory foundation), from the Accommodation fee 住宿费 column (800 yuan/month single, 350 or 320 yuan/month double, 180 yuan/month four-person), and from Insurance 保险费 (800 yuan/year), Medical examination 体检费 (415 yuan) and Residence permit 居留许可办理费 (800 yuan/year), which confirms the CNY 400 is the one-off application charge and not tuition or a term charge. Step 3 of the guide's Admission Procedure states it directly: "Please settle the registration fee of 400 yuan through WeChat pay and submit the payment receipt to the admission protal" — 第三步：请通过微信支付报名费：400 元人民币。 The English recruitment guide page on the same portal also instructs applicants to pay the registration fee within one week of receiving the university's email. Only the application and registration charge is recorded here; all annual, monthly and per-examination figures in that table are tuition or other costs and are recorded separately under tuition and otherCosts.

University background, academic strengths and sources
Traces its origin to the Western Learning School of Shanxi Grand Academy, founded in 1902 as one of China's earliest modern universities; it is a Project 211 and Double First-Class institution whose Mechanical Engineering discipline was rated B in the fourth round national discipline evaluation. Fields listed on this profile include College of Mechanical and Vehicle Engineering, College of Materials Science and Engineering, College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, College of Civil Engineering.

Taiyuan University of Technology (TYUT) traces its founding to 1902 and the Western Learning School of the Shanxi Grand Academy, which makes it one of the very earliest modern universities in China, older than almost every institution that now outranks it in fame. Today it is an engineering university in Shanxi, holding Project 211 and Double First-Class status, and its identity is inseparable from the region it serves: the coal heartland of China, now pivoting toward clean energy.
That pivot is exactly where TYUT is strongest. Its nationally selected first-class discipline is chemical engineering and technology, built around green and efficient coal utilization, and it absorbed the former Shanxi Institute of Mining, giving it deep benches in mining engineering, materials science, mechanical engineering, and electrical and power engineering. For applicants interested in energy transition, carbon utilization, or process engineering, TYUT offers serious national-laboratory-level research.
The recorded 2026 High-Level Postgraduate call used agency number 10112, GPA 3.4/4.0, IELTS 6.5 or TOEFL 85 for English study, HSK 4/200 for Chinese study and 20 funded places. Its window ran 1 December 2025–10 March 2026 and is closed. The general guide requires master’s and doctoral supervisor acceptance and interview forms before application, and lists a CNY 400 application/registration payment by WeChat.
Taiyuan is an ancient city on the Fen River with a dry continental climate, cold winters, warm summers, and an editorial living-cost estimate at roughly CNY 1,000-1,800 per month excluding housing. The 1,400-year-old Jinci Temple sits at the edge of the city and the walled town of Pingyao is a short high-speed rail ride away. Seat counts and dates change with each recruitment guide, so verify the current notice at ciee.tyut.edu.cn before building your timeline around it.

Official websiteTaiyuan University of Technology CSC scholarship FAQ
What are my realistic CSC chances at Taiyuan University of Technology?
Reasonable for a 211 university, but the pool of funded seats is small: the recent official notice listed around 20 high-level graduate scholarships covering master's and PhD combined, and it set a GPA bar of 3.4 out of 4.0. If you clear that bar with a supervisor's backing in an engineering field, TYUT is a realistic target; below it, your file is unlikely to survive screening.
Do I need a supervisor's letter or interview at TYUT?
TYUT’s recorded 2026 general guide requires master’s and doctoral applicants to identify a tutor and obtain an acceptance letter and interview evaluation form before applying. Follow the exact forms and deadlines for your intake.

Is the CSC scholarship at Taiyuan University of Technology fully funded?

What is the application deadline for Taiyuan University of Technology?
Deadlines differ by degree, route, and intake. Check Taiyuan University of Technology's current international admissions notice for the dates that apply to you.

Does Taiyuan University of Technology charge an application fee?
The application fee is CNY 400, published as a registration fee (报名费) in the 2026 International Student Recruitment Guide of Taiyuan University of Technology. The guide's 相关费用 Relevant Fees table lists "Registration fee 报名费 400 yuan / 400 元" in a column of its own, separate from the Tuition fee 学费 column (15,000 yuan/year doctoral, 12,000 yuan/year master's, 10,000 yuan/year bachelor's, 6,000 yuan/year preparatory foundation), from the Accommodation fee 住宿费 column (800 yuan/month single, 350 or 320 yuan/month double, 180 yuan/month four-person), and from Insurance 保险费 (800 yuan/year), Medical examination 体检费 (415 yuan) and Residence permit 居留许可办理费 (800 yuan/year), which confirms the CNY 400 is the one-off application charge and not tuition or a term charge. Step 3 of the guide's Admission Procedure states it directly: "Please settle the registration fee of 400 yuan through WeChat pay and submit the payment receipt to the admission protal" — 第三步：请通过微信支付报名费：400 元人民币。 The English recruitment guide page on the same portal also instructs applicants to pay the registration fee within one week of receiving the university's email.
