Research centre for eco-environmental sciences (RCEES) of Chinese academy of sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), was founded in 1975.It was the first-generation of environmental research institutes in China.In 1986, it was amalgamated with the research center for ecology, and reorganized as RCEES.In June 1999, it became a part of the Pilot Project of Knowledge Innovation Program of CAS.The research department comprises 11 research laboratories, which consist of 3 State Key Laboratories and 2 CAS Key Laboratories. From environmental chemistry, environmental aquatic chemistry, ecology, soil environmental sciences to air pollution, our laboratories are covering major eco-environmental research areas.The mission of RCEES is to make theoretical and technological breakthroughs in the area of ecological security, environmental health, and sustainable development. We conduct world class research, provide advice to the government and cultivate high-caliber scientific talent at the same time. 

As one of the key educational bases for graduate students in CAS, RCEES offers M.Sc program in environmental sciences, ecology, environmental engineering, environmental economics and environmental management, organic chemistry, analytical chemistry; Ph.D program in environmental sciences, ecology, environmental engineering, environmental economics and environmental management, organic chemistry, analytical chemistry; and provides postdoctoral program in environmental sciences and technology and biology and ecology.   

RCEES has 103 doctoral supervisor tutors and 84 master tutors. We offer connection between research and teaching, so being a student here has access to high level researchers and many opportunities to join in projects. RCEES has an enrolment of over 200 graduate students each year, and a total of 1,300 ongoing students. We have graduated around 2,000 Ph.Ds and maters, which makes great contribution to china’s scientific and economic development.   

Since 1990, many students received numerous honors and awards such as three National Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation award, nine CAS President's Outstanding Performance award, thirteen CAS Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation award and 289 CAS President's Excellent Performance award and other awards.
