Beijing Forestry University

Beijing Forestry University was founded in 1952, and its history can be traced back to the agricultural science and forestry program of Beijing University in 1902. In 1952, the Department of forestry of Beijing Agricultural University and the Department of forestry of Hebei Agricultural University were merged to set up Beijing Forestry University independently. In 1956, the Department of landscape architecture of Beijing Agricultural University and the Department of architecture of Tsinghua University were incorporated into our university to establish the major of urban and residential greening. The University began to recruit graduate students in 1955 and international students in 1956. In 1960, it was listed as a national key university by the central government. In 1969, the school was forced to move to Yunnan. After ten years, it returned to Beijing in 1979. In 1982, the State Council approved our university as one of the first batch of universities with the right to confer doctor's and master's degrees. In 1985, it was renamed Beijing Forestry University. In 1996, it was listed as one of the 41 universities in the first batch of "211 Project" by the state. In February 2000, it was directly under the management of the Ministry of education. In June of the same year, it approved the pilot establishment of graduate school. In December, it entered the ranks of 22 universities supported by the "action plan for the revitalization of education in the 21st century". In January 2001, it was jointly built by the Ministry of education and the State Forestry Administration. In November 2003, it was listed as "211 Project" and "Tenth Five Year Plan" key construction university. In May 2004, through the evaluation of the Ministry of education, the graduate school was officially established, becoming one of the 56 universities with graduate schools in China. In 2005, it was listed as one of 42 universities with independent undergraduate selection and admission qualifications by the state. The development of the school is valued and cared by the party and the state. In 1965, Comrade Dong Biwu wrote an inscription for the school. In May 1984, Comrade Deng Xiaoping personally wrote the name of Beijing Forestry University. On the 50th anniversary of the school in 2002, Comrade Li Peng wrote an inscription in his own hand: "implementing the strategy of sustainable development and cultivating talents for the reconstruction of beautiful mountains and rivers". In recent years, party and state leaders such as Li Lanqing, Jiang Chunyun, Chen Muhua, Jia Qinglin, Qian Qichen, He Luli, Xu Jialu, Chen Zhili, Zhang Siqing, and leading comrades of the Ministry of education and the State Forestry administration such as Zhou Ji and Zhou Shengxian have visited and guided the work of the school for many times.
