CAEP’s four main tasks are to develop nuclear weapons, research microwaves and lasers for nuclear fusion ignition and directed-energy weapons, study technologies related to conventional weapons, and deepen military-civil fusion. It claims that its research covers 260 specialising, primarily in the broad areas of physics and mathematics, mechanics and engineering, materials and chemistry, electronics and information, and optics and electrical engineering.CAEP hosts part of the Tianhe-2 supercomputer, one of the worlds fastest supercomputers.Despite the sensitivity of its work, CAEP has expanded its international presence in recent years. It claims to send hundreds of scientists overseas to study or work as visiting scholars. CAEP has also used Chinese government talent recruitment schemes such as the Thousand Talents Plan to recruit dozens of scientists from abroad. By 2015, CAEP had recruited 57 scholars through the Thousand Talents Plan, making it one of the largest recruiters of Thousand Talents Plan scholars.CAEP maintains strong collaborative relationships with Chinese civilian universities.

"description": "COMAC was established in 2008 as a state-owned manufacturer of large commercial aircraft. The company oversees eleven subsidiaries that focus on various aspects of aircraft production. A list of COMAC’s subordinate companies can be found in English on the company’s website.Despite its focus on commercial aircraft, China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has referred to it as a defence industry conglomerate. The company maintains strong links to China’s defence industry and some of its leadership is drawn from former executives at state-owned military aircraft and missile manufacturers. China’s leading producer of military aircraft, the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), also holds a 10 per cent share in COMAC. COMAC supports the continued development of China’s defence industry by awarding ‘national defence technology scholarships’ to Chinese university students.COMAC’s signature passenger aircraft, the C919, offers an example of how the company could use its civilian aircraft production for military purposes. Numerous Chinese analysts have studied Boeing’s conversion of the 737 into the P-8 Poseidon and E-7A surveillance aircraft and argue that the C919 could also be retrofitted for early warning as well as anti-surface and anti-submarine warfare missions. With a greater flight range than China’s other military aircraft, a retrofitted C919 for maritime surveillance operations could reduce China’s dependence on artificial air bases in the South China Sea which currently render aircraft vulnerable to corrosion due to harsh weather conditions. Vice-Chairman of the Central Military Commission, Zhang Youxia, reportedly expressed an interest in learning from American companies in converting civilian aircraft into military aircraft while inspecting COMAC’s C919.

"description": "IEU was formed in June 2017, combining the old Information Engineering University with the PLA Foreign Languages University. PLA experts have described IEU as ‘the sole military academy for the cyber and electronic warfare arms of China’s network-electronic forces’.The IEU is currently subordinate to the PLA Strategic Support Force’s Network Systems Department, which holds the military’s signals intelligence capabilities. Previously, the university was run by the General Staff Department Third Department (commonly known as 3PLA), the PLA’s signals intelligence service that has been incorporated into the Strategic Support Force. IEU’s command tracks include Network Engineering (网络工程), which is dedicated to the cultivation of cyber attack and defense technical cadre (网络攻防技术干部). It is responsible for the construction of the Henan Provincial Laboratory of Visible Light Communication (河南省可见光通信重点实验室).The university is primarily known for research and training on hacking, cryptography, signals processing, surveying and mapping, and navigation technology. However, since absorbing the PLA Foreign Languages University, it now serves as one of the most important language schools for Chinese military intelligence officers, describing itself as a ‘whole-military foreign languages training base for individuals going abroad’. While the PLA Foreign Languages University is best known for training signals intelligence officers, it has also trained many officers in the PLA’s political warfare wing, the Central Military Commission Political Work Department Liaison Bureau.",

"description": "In 2017, NUDT was reformed and placed in charge of the Institute of International Relations in Nanjing, the National Defense Information Institute in Wuhan, the Xi’an Communications College, the Electrical Engineering Institute in Hefei, and the College of Meteorology and Oceanography in Nanjing. The Institute of International Relations in Nanjing is a key training centre for intelligence officers.NUDT is known for its research on supercomputers, autonomous vehicles, hypersonic missiles and China’s Beidou Navigation Satellite System. The university developed the Tianhe-2A supercomputer at the National Supercomputing Center in Guangzhou, the world’s fastest supercomputer from 2013 to 2016. NUDT’s Tianhe-1A supercomputer is based at Hunan University’s National Supercomputing Center Changsha (国家超级计算长沙中心).For over a decade, NUDT has aggressively leveraged overseas expertise and resources to build its capabilities. The Australian Strategic Policy Institute’s International Cyber Policy Centre’s October 2018 report ‘Picking flowers, making honey: The Chinese military’s collaboration with foreign universities’ documented and analysed NUDT’s overseas presence. The report found that by 2013 the university had sent over 1,600 of its professors and students to study and work abroad. Universities in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Singapore, the Netherlands and Germany engage in some of the highest levels of collaboration with NUDT. Some of NUDT’s leading experts on drone swarms, hypersonic missiles, supercomputers, radars, navigation and quantum physics have been sent to study or work abroad.Defected Chinese spy Wang Liqiang claimed in 2019 that NUDT’s ‘Intelligence Center’ sent him fake passports for his mission to interfere in Taiwanese politics. This indicates that the university plays an important role in supporting China’s overseas intelligence activity.NUDT also works with foreign technology companies. Google and Microsoft have both worked with and trained NUDT scientists.",

"description": "UESTC was established in 1961 as one of China’s first defence industry universities. It is now subordinate to the Ministry of Education (MOE) and is also jointly supervised by defence industry agencies MIIT and SASTIND, as well as the Chinese military’s leading electronics manufacturer, China Electronics Technology Group Corporation (CETC).The university is one of China’s leading universities for defence electronics research. It claims to rank among the top MOE universities in terms of the scale of its defence research. Between 2011 and 2015, its annual spending on defence research grew by 210% to RMB400 million (AUD80 million) and may account for as much as 32% of its overall research spending. 16.43% of UESTC graduates in 2017 who found employment were working in the defence sector. UESTC gained secret-level security credentials about a decade ago, probably in 2006, making it one of the first MOE universities to hold them.UESTC research has been used by state-owned manufacturers of military aircraft, missiles, and military electronics and the PLA Navy on projects such as the JF-17 fighter and the Navy’s aircraft carrier program.UESTC’s defence research covers areas including electronics, microwaves, terahertz technology, anti-jamming technology and signal processing, communication systems, military-use critical materials, optoelectric imaging. Between 2001 and 2005, UESTC undertook over 900 military electronics projects worth in excess of RMB500 million (AUD104 million).UESTC’s research on artificial intelligence has attracted scrutiny for its human rights implications. In 2015, a professor recruited by UESTC through the Thousand Talents Plan established a company called Koala AI. The company produces artificial intelligence surveillance systems that are used in Xinjiang, where an estimated 1.5 million Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities have disappeared into concentration camps.UESTC has close relationships with the Chinese defence industry. The university operates a national laboratory on high-power radiation with the Chinese Academy of Engineering Physics, the PRC’s primary nuclear warhead research complex. CETC, a state-owned defence conglomerate, partnered jointly with the MOE to developUESTC’s capabilities. Under the arrangement, UESTC agreed to expand its collaboration with CETC, help train CETC personnel and send its best students to work at CETC. Defence industry agency SASTIND also signed agreements to supervise UESTC in 2008 and 2016.",

They include Geng Huichang (耿惠昌), a former Minister of State Security (2007-2016) and vice minister of State Security (1998-2007). Prior to this he was the head of  China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations from 1992 to 1998. From 1990 to 1992, he was the director of UIR’s American Research Department and from 1985-1990 he was deputy director of the American Research department.  Notably, current UIR President Tao Jian is also a former CICIR vice-president and a UIR graduate.UIR gives the MSS a way to work with foreign universities and academics to shape and learn about perceptions of the PRC’s views on security. It also provides a platform for the MSS to identify talent, recruit officers and collect intelligence.The university’s Hangzhou campus, also known as the Zhejiang Second People’s Police School, may carry out more practical training of MSS officers and has been described on a local government website as ‘specialising in training special talent’. Some graduates of the Hangzhou campus have moved straight into MSS positions. The Hangzhou campus works closely with Zhejiang University on teaching and research.",
