This course will provide an overview of the developments in the visual arts of China from the Paleolithic period to the present day, and will relate them to changes in the broader culture. By examining the shift in visual culture in the history of Chinese art, the course also provides an understanding of the political, religious, economic, and cultural contexts in which art objects of each period have been specifically produced and valued.

Topics on Engineering Frontier is a kind of technology summary lecture course for engineering graduate students. This course is oriented to the field of big environment and large energy. It comprehensively and systematically introduces the latest research trends of electrical engineering, power engineering and Engineering Thermophysics, civil engineering, water conservancy engineering, environmental science and engineering, and introduces the frontier research direction of cross integration of this field with research hotspots such as big data and artificial intelligence.
