Nanjing Forestry University (NJFU; 南京林业大学) is a provincial public university in Nanjing, Jiangsu, China. Affiliated with the Province of Jiangsu, the university is part of the Double First-Class Construction.[2]

History

The origin of the university can be traced back to the Forest Departments of Jinling University and Central University.[3] In 1952, Nanjing Forestry College was established after the merger of the Forest Departments from Wuhan University, Nanchang University, and Hubei Agricultural College. It was renamed Nanjing Technological College of Forest Products in 1972. It adopted the current name in 1985.[4][5]
