International Education

Alumni Since 1952, about 70, 000 students have

graduated from Hohai University, most of whom are

devoting themselves to China’s water trade. It is

common for Hohai graduates to participate in

almost all major Chinese water resources projects

and management.

Some of them are academicians of the Chinese

Academy of Engineering and the Chinese Academy

of Sciences, ministerial and provincial leaders and

generals in the Chinese army.

Employment prospects are EXCELLENT.

Graduates are highly regarded and highly sought

after.
