Shanxi University's two disciplines of plant and animal science, and agricultural science were included in the top 1 percent on the Essential Science Indicators (ESI) list.

Shanxi University has so far had eight disciplines, including chemistry, engineering, materials, and computer science, included in the top 1 percent on the ESI list, which is a landmark achievement in the development of the university's disciplines.
