Recently, the special motor team from School of Electrical and Information Engineering of Changzhou Institute of Technology (CIT) rolled out the 315KW ISO-compatible high-speed maglev motors, the development of which it was charged, according to the partner entity Jiangsu Matecs. Commissioned by Jiangsu Matecs, the team developed a series of high-speed maglev motors (37kw-400kw), overcoming the problems such as inaccurate mathematical modeling of control object, large interference influence and rotor excitation caused by unbalanced force. The application of theoretical knowledge to practice made a qualitative leap in the product performance, bringing the products to the international advanced level with the satisfaction of Class A technical indicators of ISO14839. Relevant products have been adopted by CRRC, Hitachi, Wuhan Greatall, Xinlei Compressor and other large enterprises. Since the first high-speed maglev motor was sold in 2020, the company's sales have soared from 8 million yuan in 2020 to 40 million yuan in 2021. The three core members of the team, Zhu Yili, Yu Jianying and Li Yuan, are all young teachers from School of Electrical and Information Engineering, CIT. Dr. Zhu, who graduated from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, is responsible for the R&D of magnetic bearing, Dr. Yu, who graduated from Shenyang University of Technology, is responsible for the design of motor body, and Dr. Li, who graduated from China University of Mining and Technology, is responsible for the R&D of motor controller. At present, they three are jointly mentoring 2 postgraduates and 30 undergraduates at the Industrial College of Electric Motor.

Over the past three years, the School of Electrical and Information Engineering has earnestly pressed forward with the initiative 2.0 of "one faculty to one town, one hundred teams for one hundred businesses". Guided by local industrial needs and high-quality employment of students, the School gains traction from the industry-education integration and professional certification, and makes such integration a booster to the quality of talent development and technological innovation. The School boasts 12 sci-tech service teams (one of them approved as the provincial excellent innovation team in 2019), and 26 teachers approved and appointed as "deputy CTOs/chief engineers" in the provincial entrepreneurship and innovation program. With 22 provincial industry-university-research projects, it has received an actual amount of more than 30 million yuan from horizontal scientific research projects. Across the School, there are 15 "three in one" bases, 3 "enterprise name classes", 5 laboratories and 2 industry-education integration demonstration bases, which are all co-built with well-known enterprises in the industry. In addition, it has 2 national first-class specialties, 1 provincial first-class specialty, 1 provincial key industrial college, and 2 specialties accredited by the international engineering education. One of its courses has been rated as the national first-class course and 4 as provincial first-class courses. Two of its industry-education integration cases were selected as typical cases by Higher Education Expo China (HEEC), and one case of its training base listed as an excellent case of industry-education integration training base by the National Center for Schooling Development Programme.
