The invention discloses a novel composite carbon-coated lithium titanate doped cathode material and method for preparing the same, which belong to the technical field of lithium ion battery manufacture. The method includes: using a titanium source, a lithium source and additives as raw materials, adding deionized water for wet grinding, vacuum drying, primarily synthesizing at the high temperature of 650-750 DEG C for 12-16 hours, cooling to the room temperature, adding organic carbon source materials, well mixing, secondarily synthesizing and coating carbon at the high temperature of 750-850 DEG C for 12-16 hours, cooling to the temperature below 80 DEG C, and discharging to obtain composite carbon-coated lithium titanate doped material (Li4Ti (5-x)YxOi2 / C). The lithium titanate material made by doping synthesis and carbon coating synthesis has the advantages of high conductivity, high crystallization level, uniformity in granularity, excellent processing performance, fine electrochemical performance and the like, and completely meets the requirements of automobile power lithium batteries and accumulation lithium ion batteries.
