Nanjing Agricultural University

Brief Introduction:
Nanjing Agricultural University (NAU) is not only a national key university of high learning directly administered by the Ministry of Education, but also one of the earliest higher education establishments for agriculture. It has a good reputation both at home and abroad in all fields of agricultural science. Its predecessors were two agricultural colleges belonging to JinlingUniversity and NanjingUniversity (originally called the CentralUniversity). In 1952, the college was created as a result of the merger of these two agricultural colleges, together with some departments of the Agricultural College of Zhejiang University. In 1984, the college was renamed Nanjing Agricultural University. October 20 is its anniversary.
