AfterthefoundingofNewChina,inordertomeettheneedsoflarge-scalesocialistconstruction,in1952,thecentralgovernmentInaccordancewiththepolicyof"focusingontrainingindustrialconstructiontalentsandteachers,developingspecializedcolleges,andrectifyingandstrengtheningcomprehensiveuniversities",adjustmentstoschoolsanddepartmentswillbecarriedoutnationwide.TheGeologyDepartmentofPekingUniversity,theDepartmentofGeologyofTsinghuaUniversity,theDepartmentofGeologyandEngineeringofTianjinUniversity(formerlyBeiyangUniversity),theGeologyGroupoftheMiningDepartmentofTangshanRailwayInstitute(nowSouthwestJiaotongUniversity),andtheDepartmentofGeologyofNorthwestUniversitymergedtoformthepredecessorofChinaUniversityofGeosciences-BeijingSchoolofGeology.

OnNovember1,1952,thefirstopeningceremonyoftheBeijingInstituteofGeologywasheldontheroadsoftheDuanwangMansioninBeijing.LiSiguang,afamousChinesegeologistandministeroftheDepartmentofGeology,saidinhisspeech:"NowNewChinahasstartedTheBeijingInstituteofAeronauticsandGeosciencesistheearth-shakingcause,andtheBeijingInstituteofGeologyistheearth-shaking.Youaretheearth-movingwarriors...Youarethenewfather-in-lawandmother-in-lawoftheearth.IcongratulateyouonbehalfoftheMinistryofGeology."Hopetomakestudentsmoreenthusiasticaboutgeologicalcareer.TheschoolhasdecidedthatNovember7willbethe"SchoolDay"oftheBeijingInstituteofGeology.
