Location
[edit]Northeast Forestry University is located in the city of Harbin, the center of the region with China's largest state-owned forests. Its campus covers more than 136 hectares (336 acres) with teaching buildings, scientific research laboratories, and practice sites. In addition, there are several practice centers which include the Maoershan Experimental Forestry Center (Maoershan National Forest Park) and the Liangshui Experimental Forestry Center (Liangshui National Nature Reserve). The university has a total area 33,000 hectares (81,545 acres).
The campus contains 15 dormitories and one dining hall. As a university which has more than 20,000 undergraduate students enrolled, the population density is higher than many other universities in China.
Academics and research

NEFU is a multidisciplinary university with forestry as its leading field. It offers a unique specialization in forestry engineering as well as focusing on the forestry-related aspects of agriculture, science, engineering, economy, management, liberal arts, and law. The university is composed of sixteen colleges and two departments. There are five post-doctoral scientific research programs, four first-level and thirty-two second-level doctoral degree programs. In addition, there are also ten first-level, seventy-five second-level master's degree programs, three types of special discipline master's degree programs in nine fields and fifty-seven undergraduate programs. NEFU has two national first-level key disciplines, two national second-level key disciplines, six key disciplines authorized by the State Forestry Administration, two key discipline groups authorized by Heilongjiang Province, four Heilongjiang Provincial first-level key disciplines, and fifteen Heilongjiang Provincial subordinate key disciplines. With the approval of National Planning Commission and Ministry of Education, NEFU runs the national training centers of life science and technology. In addition, NEFU operates teaching and research centers for basic sciences, particularly in biology, which are also approved by the Ministry of Education.
NEFU manages a national scientific observation key station (Maoershan forestry ecological system location station), three key laboratories of Ministry of Education, four key laboratories of the State Forestry Administration, and forty-nine research institutions. There are also nine practice sites within the school, including the Maoershan Experimental Forestry Center and Liangshui Experimental Forestry Center and 180 bases outside the school.
