The Ph.D. in Nuclear Science and Technology (Natural Science) at Lanzhou University is a research‑oriented doctoral program offered under the first‑level discipline of Nuclear Science and Technology, administered by the School of Nuclear Science and Technology. This doctoral track emphasizes fundamental scientific research and advanced theoretical study in core areas of nuclear science, including nuclear physics, radiochemistry, and related subfields that explore the basic properties and interactions of atomic nuclei and particles. The program builds on Lanzhou University’s long tradition in physics and nuclear research and integrates rigorous theoretical foundations with cutting‑edge experimental and computational methods.

Doctoral candidates pursue independent, original research that contributes to deeper understanding of the fundamental structure, forces, and dynamics of matter at the subatomic level, drawing on disciplines such as particle physics and atomic nucleus physics, and relating these to broader questions in natural science. Graduates of the program are trained to become leading researchers and scholars capable of advancing basic science, contributing to large‑scale scientific collaborations, and applying nuclear science insights to areas such as materials research, energy systems, and interdisciplinary natural science challenges.
