What Is scu.edu.cn? Sichuan University’s Official Website Explained
Updated
scu.edu.cn is the official website of Sichuan University (四川大学), a university in China. It is primarily an institutional information portal: it presents the university’s structure, teaching and research information, and audience-specific entry points. It is not an online application system or a self-service student account portal; those functions are reached through the linked service pages and subsites listed on the site.
What the site covers
The homepage navigation organizes the university’s public information into these main areas:
| Section | What it contains |
|---|---|
| 学校概况 (University overview) | Introduction, history, leadership structure, disciplines, and university identity |
| 组织机构 (Organization) | Administrative offices, schools and departments, service units, and disciplinary inspection bodies |
| 教育教学 (Education and teaching) | Talent-development overview, undergraduate and graduate teaching, international student education, continuing education, and course resources |
| 科学研究 (Scientific research) | Research overview, research platforms, humanities and social sciences, natural sciences, and research outputs in both areas |
| 师资队伍 (Faculty) | Faculty overview, academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Engineering, distinguished professors, and national teaching masters |
| 交流合作 (Exchange and cooperation) | Domestic and international cooperation, including Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan |
| 招生就业 (Admissions and employment) | Admissions and employment overview with links to admissions and career sites |
The site also includes news, academic research updates, and a section for university images and history.
Entry points for different audiences
The header provides direct links for students, faculty and staff, alumni, and visitors. It also links to:
- 云上川大·服务大厅 (a campus services hall)
- WebVPN for off-campus access
- 人才招聘 (job recruitment)
- 邮件系统 (email system)
- An English-language version (EN)
These links are the practical starting points for people who need campus services rather than general information.
Admissions and employment links
The admissions and employment section points to separate sites for:
- Undergraduate admissions (本科招生网)
- Graduate admissions information (研究生招生信息在线)
- International student admissions (来华留学生招生信息)
- Graduate employment (毕业生就业网)
- Continuing education admissions (继续教育招生)
- Preparatory education for study abroad (出国留学预备教育招生)
- Foreign-language training and exams (外语培训与考试)
Prospective students and job seekers should use these linked sites rather than the main university homepage, because admissions requirements, deadlines, and procedures are maintained on the dedicated admissions pages.
What to expect and what not to expect
The site is useful for confirming the university’s official identity, browsing its schools and research platforms, and finding the correct admissions or employment subsite. The homepage itself does not publish tuition figures, application forms, or account login details. Those details, where available, sit on the linked admissions and service pages. If you need to apply, check admissions, or access campus services, follow the relevant linked site from the navigation rather than treating the main page as the application portal.
