    Tongji University is one of the earliest national universities in China. It is a national key university directly under the Ministry of Education and jointly built with Shanghai City. After 115 years of development, Tongji University has become a comprehensive, research-oriented and international university with distinctive characteristics and great influence at home and abroad. Its comprehensive strength ranks among the forefront of domestic universities.

    The university was founded in 1907 by German doctor Erich Bolon with the support of the Chinese and German governments and all sectors of society. In 1912, it was named Tongji Dewen Medical Engineering School together with the newly founded Tongji Dewen Industrial School. In 1917, it was taken over by the Chinese and was successively renamed Tongji Medical Engineering School and private Tongji Medical Engineering Specialized School. It was named Tongji University in 1923 and became a national university in 1927. After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan in 1937, Tongji University moved six times, successively to Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Guangxi, Yunnan and other places, and moved to the ancient town of Lizhuang in Yibin, Sichuan Province in 1940. After moving back to Shanghai in 1946, it developed into a comprehensive university known for its faculties of Science, engineering, medicine, arts and Law.

    In the national faculty adjustment that began in 1949, Tongji University's original superior disciplines such as liberal arts, law, medicine, science, machinery, electrical engineering, shipbuilding, surveying and mapping were either supported by other universities or relocated to the mainland as a whole. At the same time, more than 10 universities in the country converge on civil construction-related disciplines, making it the largest and most comprehensive engineering university in the field of civil construction in China. After 1978, the university implemented "two changes" — the resumption of exchanges with Germany from a closed school to an open school, and the expansion of disciplines from an engineering university with a focus on civil engineering to a comprehensive university with a focus on science and technology. In 1996, Shanghai Institute of Urban Construction and Shanghai Institute of Building Materials Industry were merged into the national "211 Project" construction universities. In 2000, it merged with Shanghai Railway University to form the new Tongji University. In 2002, it was listed as a national "Project 985" construction university. In 2003, Shanghai Aeronautical Technology School was put under the management of Tongji University. In 2004, it was listed as a middle management university. In 2017, it was listed as class A university for national world-class university construction.
