The university was directly administrated by the Ministry of Geology, the Ministry of Geology and Mineral Resources, and the Ministry of Land and Resources in succession until its administration was delegated to the local government in 2000. Since then, it has been co-run by the central and local governments and administrated by the Sichuan Provincial People's Government. In 2010, it became a university jointly run by the Ministry of Land and Resources and the Sichuan Provincial People's Government.
