VI. Project Overview
Currently, the world’s higher education has gradually evolved from a learning community and an academic community into an innovation community, and the establishment of a university with the abilities to lead the future is of the highest priority of all world-class universities. Accelerating the construction of a pioneering research-oriented university is of great significance for cultivating top-notch innovative talents, developing scientific and technological self-reliance, and leading higher education reforms and innovations. Eastern Institute of Technology (Tentative) is a private, nonprofit research-oriented university aimed at becoming a world-class institution of higher education and cutting-edge research with broad societal impacts. It is funded by the Education Foundation established by Mr. Yu Renrong, a leading entrepreneur born in Ningbo, Zhejiang, and supported by the governments of Zhejiang Province and Ningbo City.
Ningbo Yongjiang Technical Innovation Corridor is one of the three major technical innovation corridors in the circular bay economic zone of Yangtze River Delta, and is positioned as a “leading source of technical innovation in the Yangtze River Delta region with global influence”. Qingshuipu Area of Zhenhai District, Ningbo City, where Eastern Institute of Technology (Tentative) is located, is situated at the intersection of Yongjiang Technical Innovation Corridor, the strategic zone of the three rivers and six banks, and the ecological belt of Ningbo City. It has dense and efficient scientific research institutes, diverse innovation platform, and great strength as an important industrial town, being the area with most potential for the industrial development of technical innovation. The space has the dual value attributes of ecology and technical innovation, and it has always been regarded as the prerequisite for “ecology + innovation”.
6.1 Schooling Scale
It is planned that the number of students in the University within ten years will be 10,000, and the ratio of undergraduate, master and doctoral degrees will be 4:3:3.
There will be 600 core professors (PI), including 200 in the College of Science, 150 in the College of Engineering, 150 in the College of Information Science and Technology, 50 in the College of Business, and 50 in various interdisciplinary research centers.
6.2 Project Construction Scale and Investment Plan
The planned Gross Floor Area of this plot is about 1.148 million square meters. The estimated total construction cost is RMB 11 billions.
VII. Requirements for Open Application
① There is no qualification limit for design agencies to join this competition. Both domestic and international design agencies with relevant design experience (independent legal entities or other organizations licensed to perform architecture planning and designs) can apply. Consortium with no more than 4 members is allowed. In addition, each consortium member is not allowed to make duplicated applications either by himself/herself or by joining a different consortium with other design agencies. Applications submitted by individuals or a group of individuals are not accepted.
② Priority will be given to design agencies (including consortiums) with experience in campus planning and architectural design.
③ The design personnel joining the competition shall be registered with the participating design agency.
④ The open application design agency (consortium) should provide prequalification application documents as per Requirements for Prequalification Application Documents, which include application materials and a concept design. See attachment: “Competition Rules 3 -Part I: Instructions to Participants, Section 3. Requirements for Prequalification Application Documents” for details.
VIII. Competition Rules
This international competition will proceed at three stages: the 1st stage is “selection of “by invitation” design agencies + open application prequalification”; the 2nd stage is “design competition”; the 3rd stage is “determining the winner”.
1st stage – selection of “by invitation” design agencies + open application prequalification
The method of “invitation + open application” will be adopted to determine the shortlisted design agencies of this project. After the review of qualifications of candidates from both “by invitation” and “open application” groups, no more than 10 agencies will be shortlisted in the end to jointly participate in the second stage – design competition.
2nd stage – design competition
The Host will organize an on-site survey and a Q & A meeting for the shortlisted design agencies. After signing the Participation Confirmation Letter and Confidentiality Agreement, the Host will provide basic design materials in details, and the shortlisted agencies will submit deliverables that meet the requirements as per Design Brief. At least one interim presentation will be arranged during the design competition stage.
3rd stage – determining the winner
The Host reserves the right to request the top three agencies to optimize their deliverables based on the opinions of the scheme review committee before determining the top three rankings based on the opinions of the scheme review committee. If optimization is required, the optimization period shall not exceed 4 weeks.
(1) The Host will rank the top three on the basis of respecting the opinions of the scheme review committee, and the first-place agency is the winner. The final result of the competition will be announced after the ranking is determined.
(2) The Host independently decides that finally one (the first-place winner) or more agencies will undertake the architectural schematic design development according to the situation of the scheme review.
(3) The first-place winner will undertake the campus master plan scheme development and design development of no less than 50% buildings in the campus; the scheme development will reach the extent of construction approval for scheme, in which the architectural discipline will reach the extent of design development.
(4) If due to the reasons of the winner (such as the winner’s abandonment of the qualification, the failure to perform the contract due to non-force majeure, or the fact that there is an illegal act that affects the winning result), the winner no longer meets the winning conditions or cannot continue to participate in the subsequent work, the Host can communicate with other shortlisted agencies to separately determine other agency(ies) participating in the subsequent development work.
Competition Schedule
☆ All the time mentioned is Beijing time. The Host reserves the right to adjust the schedule. In case of schedule adjustment, the Host will notify the shortlisted agencies via email.

The design development fee covers three parts: fee for campus master plan development, fee for individual building scheme design and architectural design development, and fee for special design development (e.g. flood control, sponge city, green and low carbon emission, etc.).
The shortlisted agencies make their own quotations based on the design scheme, and the Host will negotiate the price with the first-place winner (or other agencies assigned with design development work) according to the architectural design development assignment, and sign the design development contract in accordance with the determined design development content.
9.2 Design Compensation Fee
