China University of Mining and Technology began with the Jiaozuo Road and Mining School founded in 1909. In 1931, it was renamed the Private Jiaozuo Institute of Technology. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the school moved west to Chenggu, Shaanxi in 1938, and jointly established the National Northwest Institute of Technology with the Engineering College of Northeastern University, the Engineering College of Peking University, and the Engineering College of Beiyang University. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, after several twists and turns, it moved back to its original site in Jiaozuo in September 1949. In December 1949, the Jiaozuo Institute of Technology was transferred to the leadership of the then Ministry of Fuel Industry. In March 1950, it was renamed China Institute of Mining and Technology. In April 1951, the school moved from Jiaozuo to Tianjin. In 1952, the mining departments of Beiyang University, Tangshan Jiaotong University, and Tsinghua University were adjusted to China Institute of Mining and Technology. In 1953, the school moved to Beijing and was renamed Beijing Institute of Mining and Technology, becoming one of the famous "eight colleges" on Beijing Academy Road. In 1970, the school moved to Sanhuiba Town, Hechuan County, Sichuan Province, and was renamed Sichuan Institute of Mining and Technology. In 1978, the school began to move to Xuzhou, Jiangsu to run schools, and restored the name of China Institute of Mining and Technology, and established the Beijing Graduate School of China Institute of Mining and Technology in the original school building on Beijing Academy Road. In 1988, the school was renamed China University of Mining and Technology, and Comrade Deng Xiaoping personally wrote the name of the school. In 1997, the Beijing Graduate School of China University of Mining and Technology was changed to the Beijing Campus of China University of Mining and Technology. In 1998, the former Ministry of Coal Industry was abolished and the school was placed under the management of the State Coal Industry Bureau. In 2000, the school was transferred to the direct management of the Ministry of Education as a whole. In 2003, the Beijing Campus of China University of Mining and Technology was separated from China University of Mining and Technology and named China University of Mining and Technology (Beijing). So far, China University of Mining and Technology and China University of Mining and Technology (Beijing) have become two independent educational entities. In 2004, the school became one of the 56 universities approved by the state to establish graduate schools. In 1997, the school became a key construction university of the national "211 Project", in 2006 it became a construction university of the "985 Advantage Discipline Innovation Platform Project", and in 2017 it became a "Double First-Class" discipline construction university. With the ups and downs of history and the vicissitudes of the times, China University of Mining and Technology has developed synchronously with China's industrialization process and grown up with the People's Republic of China. The history of the school's development is a struggle history of advancing in the same direction with the country, sharing weal and woe with the industry, and resonating with the local frequency. Over the past 110 years, after 14 relocations and 12 name changes, and after hardships and displacement, it has still passed on the torch and continued to sing, forming the spirit of "self-improvement, hard work, and pursuit of excellence" of the University of Mining and Technology. In old China, the school took "educating talents, preparing for the pioneers of material construction; engaging in research, and seeking the independence of our country's academic" as its historical responsibility. After the founding of New China, the school took "developing mining, mining light, building the motherland, and benefiting mankind" as its sacred mission. After generations of hard work and struggle, China's coal higher education has created a first-class brand and unique spiritual and cultural character, forming the school motto of "respecting morality and learning", the school philosophy of "learning well and using, learning well and creating", and the school spirit of "learning hard, practicing, seeking truth and innovation". The construction and development of the school have received cordial care from the leaders of the Party and the country. Comrade Mao Zedong's inscription "Developing the Mining Industry" has inspired generations of mining university students to work tirelessly for their careers; Comrade Deng Xiaoping personally instructed the school to embark on the road of rejuvenation in the reform and opening up; Comrade Jiang Zemin came to the school to inspect the school's scientific research work and wrote an inscription for the 90th anniversary of the founding of our school; Comrade Hu Jintao sent a congratulatory letter to the 100th anniversary of the founding of our school; Comrade Xi Jinping witnessed the signing of the education and technology cooperation agreement between our school and the University of Duisburg-Essen in Germany. Chen Zhili, Zhou Ji, Chen Xi, Yuan Guiren, Chen Baosheng and other former leaders of the Ministry of Education have always been concerned about the development of the school's cause and have visited the school to inspect and guide the work.

Marc Riboud was born in Lyon, France in 1923.His original photo was taken during the Paris Expo in 1937.In 1944, he participated in the Weikor's Patriotic Resistance Movement and later became an engineer.At the age of 30, he met Henry Katie Bresson and Robert Kapa, became a photographer and joined the Magnam Photo Agency. After living in the UK for a year, he started traveling long distances.First set off to the capital of Lebanon's capital Brurt, passing Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Nepal, and finally arrived in Kolkata, India.His trip lasted a full year.He traveled to China for the first time in 1957, and lived in Japan for several months in 1958. In the early 1960s, he filmed an independent movement of Algeria and Africa, and visited the former Soviet Union several times.Since 1979, he has continued to return to China, tracking the great changes in his society and discovered Huangshan.He also visited Angkor's monuments in Cambodia many times and filmed in Istanbul and France. He has won multiple awards and has published more than thirty works.His photography is exhibited all over the world. - From 1957 to 2010, Markry has been in more than twenty times.China can be said to be the country he has taken the most.From 1979, Maclib has been filmed in China almost every year, but there is no doubt that he has the longest time. The most out of the film is the first two times in 1957 and 1965. China was still a closed country in 1957.Since the country under the rule of Chiang Kai -shek in 1948, none of the foreign photographers have shot China.After a year of Macrib's journey, Macribo arrived in Kolkata. He dreamed that he could walk to China and waited for several months to get a visa.He loves the civilization of this millennium ancient country. His understanding of India, especially how he wants to see how Mao Zedong's cultural revolution has completely changed the strong desire of the lives of the most people in the world in the world. Writer Han Suyin and Kathmandu's Indian ambassador, Asian cultural experts, and Earl Ostrorogh, who met in Nepal, all provided a lot of help to the unwilling pass from him.In December 1956, Macrob landed in Guangzhou from Hong Kong, and set foot on China for the first time. In the first few months, he was always accompanied by the guidance of him as "Angel Detention".From the big cities to the countryside, from the factory to the theater school, he walked endlessly.He traveled through the muddy rice fields and traveled through the whole China from south to north by train, and experienced a dozen spontaneous people's movement. After this trip, Macrybi waited for nearly eight years to get a second visa and came to China again in 1965.In this second trip, he saw the first end of the cultural revolution and showed us the students who worked in the field and hundreds of thousands of children who were holding wooden guns in the square. China has opened up in 1979. It has first tasted capitalism, and its vitality shocked the West.Although the reform only touches part of the port and the urban population, China has become an economical country.The Chinese people in the temple in Mao Zedong for a long time are at least the lucky part of the people who experience the charm of the consumer society. These changes have impacted the country, which is known as "older than history" by General Da Goghle, and Macriban observes these changes with enthusiasm.As he wrote, "the best way to understand China is observation."This concept drives him to return to China again and again, and he believes that "here, unremitting observation of details and instantaneous observations, he can better understand and understand a country than else."In the same preface, he also wrote: "I love everything I see, a beautiful face, a tool with old luster, and a broad and strange scenery. I see the whole nation has moved from humiliation to dignity." These photos of the key history of China's 50 years have become the only testimony of China's era.Chinese photographers who are relatively unable to work freely are more precious for this testimony.After many years, we can see that his photography works are together, forming a mosaic puzzle with both ancient Chinese relics and Shanghai Ski Building.From this puzzle, only the most keen eyes can be distinguished. When this is always like everything in a large -scale country, it seems that what it seems to be changed. It is worth mentioning that Macrob's proposal was discovered in 1985 and found Huangshan in 1985 and was glad to discover.He was completely fascinated by the scenery there, and he always loved the landscape painting of the Song Dynasty several times to find the inspiration in the painting.While walking between the mountains and mosaic mountain peaks, he came into contact with the new generation of China.He was helpful for his translator Sun Guofu, and he found that China's new generation of thinking and lifestyle had changed dramatically.He felt very interesting, sometimes even shocked with this change.Want to know how Chinese people live and think, what is their pain, their happiness, how they progress, prompting him to return to China again and again.Macrib said: "For me, the country is like a friend, I like to often meet my old friends." So China became the source of the shocking visual image that he would never dry in his photography career.Because of this, he never cared for such familiarity, so far away, and so many Chinese people.

Canadian Immigrant is a nationwide multimedia platform that helps immigrants succeed in Canada by providing them with the information, inspiration, and connections they need. The magazine was founded in 2004 with the initial mission of "informing, educating, and inspiring" Canadian immigrants and helping them embark on new journeys. Since then, the magazine has developed into the only national multi platform brand targeting all immigrants in Canada, with themes ranging from careers to education to settlement. Canadian immigration not only connects new immigrants to Canada, but also connects aspiring immigrants from over 150 countries. How can we achieve this? We create and distribute original high-quality content in both digital and print formats. Connect with Canadian immigrants and potential immigrants worldwide through social media. Organizing cross-border events, including participating in trade fairs, speaker series, practical seminars, and exchange opportunities, is called the Canada Immigration Expo. Presenting the only national award program celebrating Canadian immigration, the Top 25 Canadian Immigration Awards. We develop content to attract all immigrants and refugees, regardless of race, to share knowledge and provide inspiration in a positive way. Our content consists of success stories of immigrants who faced adversity and achieved victory. We hope these stories can inspire you on your own journey. We also have columns from experts in immigration law, banking, professions, education, and settlement. Our mission is to inform and inspire every immigrant, whether they are planning to immigrate, just arrived in the country and undergoing early settlement, or have been living here for several years and are now seeking their next steps. Travel. Most importantly, Canadian immigrants help immigrants and refugees settle in Canada by providing information, tools, resources, and strategies for personal growth and success. We hope to help immigrants become successful contributors to Canada. That's why our slogan is "Arrival. Success. Inspiration." After you arrive, we hope to help you achieve success and inspire others to do the same. ###Canadian Immigration: A Brief History Recognizing the lack of available information for new immigrants in Canada, the Canadian Immigration Program was launched in April 2004 with the aim of helping them settle down more easily. When we started researching the concept of the magazine, our investigation revealed some interesting results. One of the most important inspirations is that as immigrants leave their old role models, they need new positive role models - role models can inspire them to settle in Canada. Our research also suggests that the information needs of immigrants are roughly the same, regardless of their race. No matter which country they come from, the challenges they face are very similar. According to Statistics Canada, it takes an average of 10 years for immigrants to settle in Canada. It is becoming increasingly clear that the issue of resettlement involves more than just providing a booklet on how to obtain a social insurance number card or open a bank account. There is a wider range of information that needs to be met. This is where Canadian immigration comes in: our goal is to help inform and motivate immigrants to find their way in Canada. Today, the goal remains unchanged because these data are astonishingly similar to those from 15 years ago. According to the 2016 census data, the employment level of immigrants did not match that of Canadian born immigrants until 10 years after immigration. Canadian immigrants are here to help you succeed.
