In the course of national discipline adjustment, the first-level discipline of electrical engineering was renamed the electrical engineering discipline, and the discipline of biomedical engineering and instrumentation was renamed the biomedical engineering discipline and upgraded to the first-level discipline.

At that time, the number of graduate students enrolled reached more than 150, which was equal to that of undergraduate students for the first time.

The teaching achievement "To cultivate high-quality high-level talents in electrical engineering for the main battlefield of national economic construction" won the special prize of national teaching achievement.
