What are the four major electric power universities?

The four major electric power institutions that State Grid recruits fresh graduates are: North China Electric Power University (Beijing), North China Electric Power University (Baoding), Northeast Li Dian University and Shanghai Electric Power University.

Electric Four Tigers, the leaders of these famous engineering schools (some of which have developed into comprehensive universities), are called "Electric Four Tigers":

Xi’an Jiaotong University

Tsinghua University

Zhejiang University

Huazhong University of Science and Technology

Compared with these prestigious schools with a long history, the colleges under the Ministry of Electric Power have a short history, but they focus on the development of electrical related disciplines and have a strong industry background.

For example, North China Electric Power University in Beijing, Northeast Li Dian University in Jilin, Wuhan University of Hydraulic and Electric Power in Hubei (merged into Wuhan University) and Changsha Electric Power Institute in Hunan (merged into Changsha University of Science and Technology) have delivered a large number of electric power talents for the electric power industry.

State Grid favors eight universities.

Colleges and universities directly under the former Ministry of Electric Power: Shanghai Electric Power Institute, Nanjing University of Science and Technology, Three Gorges University, Changsha University of Science and Technology, shenyang ligong university and Northeast Li Dian University.
